I'm not agree, but are the two differents point of view. And I don't

Thomas:
So you really think letting the client eat up more of the scarce resource,
local heap memory, every two seconds, is the actually right thing to do?

Diego:
Why are you thinking that my idea could eat so much resource?

This is Usenet, not online chat. However, I thought it would need to do
that because it was not obvious to me that you don't call open() when the
request is in progress.

That demonstrate that you're obfuscated from your interpretation of
what I wrote without reading what I've really wrote!
Gift me 20 seconds of yours and try the example that I've created to
demonstrate you what I was saying since yesterday:
http://jastegg.it/tests/javascript/xhr2sec.htm
Take care: use Firebug to ensure that you can see how many client/
server connection will be active.

Without looking at the test case: OK, so there's `ImInside'. Blame me for
overlooking syntactically wrong and badly written code.

But try to answer this: In what way would calling ajax_update() repeatedly
with window.setInterval(), using global variables, and observing a
precondition be better than calling ajax_update() once, calling it again
only when the connection was possible and the request-response handling was
complete, not using any additional global variables, and canceling the
request after a well-defined amount of time that is visible at a glance?

For your information I know that ajax is asynchronous else its name, I
think, would be SJAX. Don't you?
You don't even appear to know that "AJAX" is a misnomer, let alone how XHR
works.
Why you'd like to bring that pacific conversation to a flame?
I am simply stating the facts, and I have to add: you also don't know how
window.setInterval() works, else you would not recommend using it in this
time-critical scenario.

I've used it in the examle but... well let's think that I don't know
window.setInterval method what's wrong are you bringing reasons?

Parse error. But if I were to make an educated guess, I think I have
answered that question already in <news:4921D492.9000309@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>,
among other postings.
