[Javascript] Page loaded

[Andrew Gibson]

That chat room is great Peter, I tried a few years ago something similar but
ran out of time.....and energy !

The big problem I assume is how you alert other users there is a new
message, which I guess requires a call to the server to check the
application variables holding the dialog.

Could you not use a hidden frame so as to just get the new message, rather
than reloading all the messages?

Andrew,

Have you considered the META REFRESH tag for the hidden frame,
which would then populate a hidden field in the visible page?  I have a
chat application ( http://aspalliance.com/peterbrunone ) that makes
copious use of the refresh header and never sets off the blinking
taskbar button.
