To use palabre you must be able to open a port on a server.
And I don't think that any shared-host would allow that (it implies to open a port on the firewall, ...)
As you don't need any multiuser function to do the kind of remoting you want, it is really easier to do it in PHP (or python but in a web based environnement)
hi, i really want to run a socket server on my site, but it's a basic shared-host account without telnet access. I managed to get a little tiny perl socket server running which can run completely via a browser, but god, i don't want to go anywhere near perl (the jackson pollock of programming languages).
What do i want to do with palabre? A clientside live-search textfield looking up a large serverside database. Exactly like google's lovely live-search thing. They do it with ajax, but on a tiny budget i think flash and python is the way to go.
perhaps i'll do it with php and live with the 30sec time limit, but i thought python would be the elegant method.
Anyway, does anyone know if palabre can be installed easily on a virutal host? ie. without telnet, and started and stopped by the client.
**thanks**
