Web Page Generated Memory Process

[gi11ies]

Im wondering if its possible to have a web page generate a process that stays in memory and does database calls ... and have this process resident in memory and still carrying out database calls even when the web page is closed?

Im working on web page based messaging system that checks the database for new messages for a logged in user every 30 seconds ... I have this working ok, but it would make everything ideal if I could still have this process running if the web page is closed ... for example.

Process running in Memory

Checks memory for new message for the user_id
If new message Then
Open new web page to display message
Else
Check for new message 30 seconds later
End If

Any thoughts on this would be great.

Try using a Web Service instead
