Hi All,

Is there a way for the server to notify the client about an event, provided
the client was online in the past X minutes?

To elaborate:

A client comes online. A script PHP executes (serves the client), and
terminates. Now if a new event occurs, how can the server notify the client
about that event?

Don't think it can....
But you can have the client (think AJAX) continuously 'poll' the server, and then the server can send updates back if necessary.
