Hey all, I've got an odd questions that I hope I'm able to explain well enough.

I need to create a chat page - have not decided on a lingo yet to do this. The issue I'm having though is that I need the chat window to blink or pop-up when someone has posted a message. Dose anyone know if this type of browser manipulation is possible? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Wyatt A.

No. Browsers do not remain connected to a web server after receiving the response to their request.

but a Java applet with a socket does. And you can control every aspect of the applet window.

Thanks for your responses. I will look into the java app as a possibility.
