I wrote something similar to this in perl using a perl script, Oracle stored procedures, and dbi. Basically I email certain "users" when certain threshhold levels are met. More details on request.

I need to track some events happening on the Database end, and then alert the end-clients of an event. Say for example, I submit some data, my Perl ASP/CGI page should alert the end-user about that. I thought about this: a) Having a minimized Web browser window, that would periodically poll the Server side Perl Script, which would call the database to see if such an event occured and then return the feedback. I need to know if there are any Perl-compatible technologies that would do this kind of messaging functionality..say Jabber(???) etc? Any advice on this would be deeply appreciated.
