This is a very complex and niche question, so there may not be a realistic answer for what I need to do.

This is a very complex and niche question, so there may not be a realistic answer for what I need to do.

I have an assignment to work with a wireless receiver, that needs more than jQuery's get/post functionality.

Because of cross-domain issues, this jQuery get's executed inside an Adobe Air App, created in Aptana IDE.

It has to be an adobe air, because the web server, will not be close to where the wireless receiver eventually get's connected to.

So I need an app, that can communicate with the 2Know Renaissance Wireless Receiver.

I have created an app that does some of the communication fine. Here are the steps I can do so far.

  1. Connect to the receiver
  2. See how many handheld devices are connected to the receiver
  3. Then there is supposed to be some back/forth communication, and that's not easy with in ajax at least in my knowledge.

Here is the code I have been working with, this is about the 24th version, and this is as far I have gotten.

<h1>Current Status/Prograess</h1>

<!--- step 1. is server connected --->
<div id="server_status" style="font-size:12px;"></div>

<!--- step 2. list number of devices connected --->
<div id="device_count" style="font-size:12px;"></div>
<div id="device_info" style="font-size:12px;"></div>

<!--- step 3.a Service Handler handler status / csh = Service Handler handler --->
<div id="csh_status" style="font-size:12px;"></div>

<!--- step 3.b disconnect status handler handler of many handlers --->
<div id="dis_status" style="font-size:12px;"></div>

<!--- step 4. test sending a question to a device --->
<div id="post_results" style="font-size:12px;"></div>

My question simply is there a different jquery plugin I should be using, or am I approaching this wrong?

Thank You...


I'm working on a plugin for jQuery for socket.io that I think might help you out:

https://github.com/williscool/jquery-socket.io

I've been working on an application that uses web sockets through socket.io for a while now and it's worked pretty well.

Check it out and let me know what you think.


I don't fully understand the issue, so it is a bit tricky to make recomendations, but at least can help with some different transport ideas.

Asking jQuery to do socket communication is as far as I know outside of the scope of jQuery. jQuery is really just using XMLHttpRequest, which is not going to work for persistent sockets.

Idea 1

What about using the ActionScript Socket class http://livedocs.adobe.com/flash/9.0/ActionScriptLangRefV3/flash/net/Socket.html

You could embed the flash movie in your html page and call it from javascript http://www.hariscusto.com/programming/communication-between-javascript-and-actionscript-as3-and-vice-versa/

Idea 2

You could also consider node.js on the web server and the great socket.io module for taking advantage of websockets inside air and then do bi-directional communication between the air client and the server. socket.io has a great browser client in addition to the server side support. See http://socket.io/

Here is an interesting post on Fedex's Techie Blog about using jQuery together with socket.io and node.js - http://spiritconsulting.com.ar/fedex/2010/11/events-with-jquery-nodejs-and-socket-io/

Idea 3 (New)

There is an air javascript socket class available to html air developers. I just stumbled accross it here:

Home / HTML Developer’s Guide for Adobe AIR / Networking and communication
