webcomponent contra javaapplet

[Henrik H]

Hi all,,

Are there anyone who can tell me the advantage/disadvange of using a
webcontol insted of a javaapplet??

Wich of the 2 component run's fastest??

What is else the diffrerens of the 2 components???

-Or is there a other way to get data in realtime from a database??


Thanks

they are both simular technologies. they both require the user install a vm
first. the the .net runtime is about a 20mb download, the java download is
about the same. they both have a high startup cost on the page (slow).
webcontrols are only supported by IE on windows, java has more browser
support. you decide.

Java applets run on more architectures than WebControls.

Probably the WebControl. (flame away)

Uhhh, have your page *connect to the database*. It could automagically
refresh using <META> tags.

Hi Ryan, and others )

First, Thanks for yours reply..

Do you now a way to get data from a database, that does not generate a
"hole" update/refresh to the page. Only the "data-section"

-So I don't get the click-sound. -My page (or data), needs to be refreshed
every 15 secound, so I would be very happy not to have that sound 4 times a
minute )

Thanks

If you want to avoid the DB hit, put the DB section in a user control
and cache that user control.

-So I don't get the click-sound. -My page (or data), needs to be refreshed
every 15 secound, so I would be very happy not to have that sound 4 times a
minute )

If this is only to fix the click sound, use a different browser or turn
the click sound off.

Hope this helps!

Hi Ryan,,

That is one of the reasons, the other one is, so i don't see the page
refreash all the time,,

-I just can't say to my old and new customers, that they have to use another
browser?? Or turn of the sound... Sorry but that's not my option.

A User Control was allso one of my ideas..

But im not sure whether or not it should be a java-applet or a user control?

Thanks!!
