investigate websockets #51

Closed avuserow closed 13 years ago

avuserow commented 14 years ago

Chrome and Safari currently support websockets, and Firefox 4 will. This is worth looking at to see if we can push real-time state changes to clients that support it.

dfreedm commented 14 years ago

Dunno if the best bet is to limit ourselves to browsers with websockets or to do a fall back scheme.

avuserow commented 14 years ago

We should almost certainly have a fallback, whether it is similar to what we have now or if it is closer to Tunez's way of even less Javascript.

dfreedm commented 13 years ago

websockets are shown to be insecure, and firefox 4 and opera have turned them off until further notice: http://hacks.mozilla.org/2010/12/websockets-disabled-in-firefox-4/
