Hi Team,

Can you please tell on how the architecutre of the website should be for an website which will give live commentary as match progress?(like cricinfo.com or cricbuzz.com)?

Do we need to insert each comment to the database and make it visible in front end or we need to add some text to a file which will be displayed on the front end.

Thanks and regards,
Raghavendra SK

0	No, What I meant is, You can develop a simple Windows Form or WPF application where the person who is entering the commentary will enter the details. The application will have only TextBoxes and Buttons and so he can understand the same. Let him click OK button which will create an XML file and can be store somewhere. Let your Cricket website check for the UPDATED XML File and update the content on your website. Did you got the idea?? Skraghava, if this helps please login to Mark As Answer. \| Alert Moderator

0	Hi, XML is the best way to put the live commentry... You can feed the XML and then using metadata you can refresh the page every 5 sec and load the XML... As you mentioned Text file can be an option but you need to maintain the hierarchy then we need to go for the XML.

0	Hi , Yes may be thats one of the solution. But will the person who is entering the commentry text will be knowing the XML? I think there will be a better solution. I hope some one who has worked on this kind of projects shares his knowledge. Thanks and regards, Raghavendra SK Skraghava, if this helps please login to Mark As Answer. \| Alert Moderator

0	I think for as of now this is the best approach to use. I'm not sure if there is any faster way than this because XML is the best thing you can do for the same. Even you may try by automating the things. Skraghava, if this helps please login to Mark As Answer. \| Alert Moderator

0	Hi, Yes if you want the faster method... We need to use the client scripts for loading the xml instead of normal aproach... Try the latest jquery opitions to fetch the xml. this way you can avoid the server trip and it will be fast Thanks Karthik www.f5Debug.net Skraghava, if this helps please login to Mark As Answer. \| Alert Moderator
