Hello there everyone,

I am a newbie and I need to develop a real-time application using Flash 8 to build the interface. I know that the underlying code produces JSON objects, which provide the data i have to display, but i also have the option of using the database directly and create my own XML files.My main consideration is how will my application know when data changes?Which Flash object i have to use in order to achieve this?? I read somewhere that using XML Socket is the proper solution for real-time things.  
Any suggestions will b creatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance,  
Kostas Lagos
