[Chameleon] real time applicatin with chameleon

[Paul Spencer]

Um, there are probably a few different ways of doing this, none of which 
are particularly chameleon dependent.  I think that you will need to 
consider how you will gather the data, store it, and present it to the 
user.  Chameleon just displays the contents of a mapserver Map file 
inside an application template containing widgets.

If you need an application that automatically refreshes every few 
seconds or minutes, it is easy to add javascript in the application 
template to do this.  But there is no widget that would do this for you.

If you need the application to do something when it is accessed, you can 
add the code the application's index file (the one that creates and 
executes the chameleon application).   But I probably wouldn't design an 
application this way unless there was some compeling reason to do so.

Cheers,

Paul
