Comet streaming plugin

This plugin allows to stream xajax response commands to the client using so called "comet streaming".

The zip file contains the latest xajax 0.5 SVN version.

Since the IE doesn't support multipart XHRs I had to create a fallback method using a hidden iframe (no polling!). Avoid streaming large amounts of data or LONG time streaming, since it will increase the memory usage in IE.

The setup is quite easy and should be self explanatory when you look into the comet.php file.

This plugin is now beta and not experimental anymore.
It supports FireFox 2, Safari 3, Opera 9 and IE6/7 only. Support for other browsers might follow soon. :)
