Thank you, Iam going to try using AJAX but I still doubt if it will satisfy
my demands. More likely I may end up abandon aspnet and go straight to the
bones, using sockets. I try to avoid sockets with the intentions of using
subdomains in aspnet under the 2 reasons: 1- I use a shared single ip
address and 2- i want to use port 80.

A simple way which isn't exactly what you might want would be to use AJAX.
The client would still poll for the data, but it could do so on a timer
running in the background.
My AJAX.NET article has an example that does just this...it looks like
it's a push even though it's really pull...

news:P9********************@comcast.com...I have been trying to find a way for a server to push data to a client
(aka disconnected server approach) but iam still stuck. This is the scenario:
a client is using a webclient to communicate with the aspnet server. Is
there
a way for a server to send data to a client without a client requesting
it??
I know it can be done using sockets but does aspnet provides a way? can
a webservice do it?? iam trying to find another solution besides sockets
and my preference is using aspnet if possible since i want to use subdomains
rahter than ipaddress.
thanks all
