Re: How to implement Comet in CakePHP ?

Hey.. Its been a while.

As I said before I want to implement comet chat system in cakePHP,
(there was a plug-in around there, but it does not seems to work fine
anymore. not for 1.2)

So, I have my controller: cometchats_controller.php
and my action
function comet(){
//get database data and pass it to the view
//do some other stuff...
}
the view will be rendered and the message data will be put in a div
like this <div id="content"></div>
So, let me know If I am in the correct way.

I could use afterFilter() callback to run a loop to check the database
for new message (since it is a chat system)
In case there is a new message stop the loop, and render the view
again like this:

this->render('cometchats/comet/', 'ajax);

but I want to render only the data inside the "content" div, so I have
to assign a div.
How do I do this?
Am I right so far?
