Hi Massimo, First off, thanks for your support (and development) towards web2py.
I'm currently using web2py to display data generated in a desktop application which populates the database for the application with scientific data. However, I would like to have the data automatically refreshed on the page for any given user - not through a repeated call to an AJAX method that is linked to a timer, but from an RPC call directly from the application. This way when the application has completed it's update of the database, the web application can be sure that the user is seeing the most up-to-date data that's available. (I'm pretty sure that there's another way to accomplish this - if so I'd appreciate any insight!) Hope that clears things up. Thanks!
