I can find lots of information on how Long Polling works (For example, this, and this), but no simple examples of how to implement this in code. All I can find is cometd, which relies on the Dojo JS framework, and a fairly complex server system.. Basically, how would I use Apache to serve the requests, and how would I write a simple sc...

I am looking into streaming binary data into a browser (through http). I am looking for opinions as to good ways to go about doing this. Ultimately I will have a real time data source and I would like to manipulate this data and display it (in real-ish time) in a browser. Firefox comes first, IE would be nice... but I'm not that picky. I...
We have an HttpHandler that deals directly with binary posts over HTTP from custom client software. The client software occasionally sends data which results in IIS 7 responding with a 400 - Bad Request. Since the "400 Bad Request" is special in that HTTP.SYS transparently handles it in kernel mode without notifying user mode of anything...
