How to create socket (connect to host) in javascript

Hi,

I wondered is it possible to connect to a host from javascript. I know how
to do (and have done) it from java, however I would like to create an
application with only javascript, that would be able to communicate with a
server (the same server the script and html pages reside on).

I spend some hours searching the net and dejanews but couldn't find an
answer (unfortunately javascript connect -database etc. are not very
selecting terms).

Any help greatly appreciated.

Regards, Ron AF Greve
