I would think that a Java applet would be your best bet. You can have real-time updates instead of page reloads. However, you will need to write a server to handle the specific requests for the applet. That can be done in Java, C/C++, or even Perl. I would prefer Perl because of it's string manipulation strengths. However, the most important thing is to how they communicate. For this, I wouldn't got with anything else but XML.

Is there any way to control an open winamp application in php? I want to use php as a scheduler to play Winamp. The API has system calls to do so, but I don't know how to implement the windows calls.
