In gmail, I see that the inbox is automatically updated when an email is arrives. How is it possible in PHP or ASP to handle such sort of updating client side website from the server? I guess in the browser chat it is the same process. Thanks.
This is called AJAX (Asynchronous JavaScript and XML), in which client-side scripts do request without refreshing the page altogether, and then changes page parts according to the returned response.
