i have made the jQuery version of comet before, this is what i had done:
var comet = {
connection : false,
iframediv : false,
initialize: function(){
// For other browser (Firefox...)
comet.connection = $('<iframe>');
comet.connection.attr('id', 'comet_iframe');
comet.connection.css( {
left : "-100px",
top : "-100px",
height : "1px",
width : "1px",
visibility : "hidden",
display : 'none'
})
//comet.iframediv = $('<iframe>');
comet.connection.attr('src', 'backend.php');
//comet.connection.append(comet.iframediv);
$('body').append(comet.connection);
},
// this function will be called from backend.php
printServerTime: function (time) {
console.log('time',time);
$('#content').html(time);
},
onUnload: function() {
if (comet.connection) {
comet.connection = false; // release the iframe to prevent problems with IE when reloading the page
}
}
}
$(window).load(comet.initialize)
.unload(comet.onUnload);
i had taken the code right off that page and made it jquery ^_^
