Hello Timo, thanks very much. I don't know flash, but do you think Flash
5 has this option also?. I read a basic Flash manual and didn't find
some feature for 'sockets' or something else.
For Java, I know a very basic programming of it, I will try study more
of it to understand socket functions.
Thanks all of you for your responses.
