Is it possible to have a http client open another connection to the server or other users?

Question

I would like to make a browser based game with multiple gamers in the same environment. So if I did a first person shooter type of game would a client be able to open a udp connection with the server?

Answer 1

You could have a browser open a connection to any location you like but you cannot make a browser act as a server reliably (if at all).

You will need to have a server to receive/broadcast information
