If need more than one server, Apache pre-forked model may limited. Otherwise it is just fine. Other than that, I think there are some features that only work with Apache SAPI. > Is the COMMET implementation on the client side long polling > (reconnect) or does it stream using script tags?

Actually it is just an hidden iframe that loads an HTML page with small Javascript chunks that flush each COMET AJAX server response. This is a regular HTTP request performed to the same script that serves that form. The form AJAX plug-in can detect the AJAX request and respond adequately. So it works equally well in all browsers including Webkit. > On Wed, Apr 2, 2008 at 12:09 AM, Manuel Lemos <mlemos@xxxxxxx> wrote: >> Hello, >> >> on 03/30/2008 02:52 PM steve said the following: >> >>> Hmmm...
