Java Frameworks have traditionally supported synchronous processing (Send and Respond entire web pages). How is it possible to implement asynchronous processing in such a processing send_receive model?
The HTTP mechanism remains the same. A request is sent from the browser, and a response is returned.
The asynchronous nature of Ajax is on the client and has nothing to do with the server which just gets the usual HTTP message. [ September 22, 2006: Message edited by: Bear Bibeault ]
