Hi
I have written a chat program in
java which has a problem.
The scenario is thus we have a small ticker running which tells the user visiting the site ,who else has logged on to the site and who are all logged on to the chat.
Now there is a small problem that I have not been able to solve:- if the user does not logout and his net connection gets disconnected then how do I pass this message to other users ?
i am using
applets on client side and my server is listening on a port.
I tried sending a message from client side after specific intervals of time but what happens is the netscape just dies off because of the load and IE does not refresh at all , when I tried to do it on server side my Server just hanged.
I dont know what do I do?
I am using DataInputStream,DataOutputStream and BufferredInputStream,BufferedOutputStream.
PLEASE HELP
Sweety
