Content Push

Hello List,

I am looking in to the possible use of XForms as the solution to a new
project, but one of the primary requisites is the ability to have the
web server push content to the client to continually update an XForm.

So at it's simplest think of a clock running on a server and as time
ticks by the clock's face which is on the user's web page is updated
every second (without user intervention, or page refreshes). Can this
be done?

Or can I bind the form's controls to a web service that automatically
polls the server to get the time?

Hi Bill

This sounds similar to a requirement I had in 2010 for which there is a
solution of sort.

So yes, with asynchronous submissions you can do polling.
