Now, I am told to be part of >Microsoft Windows OS! Yes, things like JAVA have happened very fast, but JAVA is realy only a bolt on which you can take or leave, that runs on top of existing protocols. If you were to try and implement your ideas over the existing http you will end up with a shadow of your true vision. Your changes are realy at a very low level, and of a fundermental nature. Either that or you compromise your plans and end up with "JAVA II" :) which would be much easier to integrate into the Net, but would defeat the objectives that you have setout to achieve. >>You sugest that telnet is already historic, but Im sure that you will find the >>telnet facility onto your own website very usefull ;) [snip] Cheers, Steve.
