    <p>By HTTP Streaming Comet, I mean the "forever iframe" / "forever xhr" variations that don't close the connection after data has been pushed from the server, as opposed to standard polling and long polling which close and resend a new request for every server push event.</p> <p>I looked at the dojo.io.cometd package and it seems they only have polling implementations. I also found <a href="http://www.zeitoun.net/articles/comet_and_php/start" rel="noreferrer">this example</a>, but it doesn't seem to work in webkit even after a fair bit of tinkering (I got it to work everywhere else). <a href="http://simonwillison.net/2007/Nov/16/" rel="noreferrer">This announcement from the safari blog</a> seems to suggest that it's possible with xhr, but I couldn't find any code or documentation, nor I could get it to work.</p> <p>Does anyone know of a technique, script, library or demo that accomplishes HTTP streaming comet in Webkit browsers (Safari and Chrome)? </p> <p><strong>Update</strong></p> <p>After a bit more tinkering, I found that there are two things that need to be done in order to get http streaming working in Safari via XHR:</p> <ul> <li>The response needs to have a Content-Type: multipart/x-mixed-replace</li> <li>The response needs to send a few "noise" characters before the browser begins to display updates consistently. I'm assuming this has something to do with filling some internal buffer.</li> </ul> <p><strong>Update 2</strong></p> <p>I finally got it to work in all browsers using an iframe technique. The caveat to the solution is that only WebKit-based browsers should receive the multipart/x-mixed-replace header.</p>

    1. COWithout "multipart/x-mixed-replace", you can still get HTTP streaming work in Safari. You just have to do parsing by yourself.

    2. CO@Leo: Is it possible for you to share the code snippets that enabled Http Streaming in all browsers? This should be useful for me and the community. Thanks.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
