this is not working anymore, I use node version 0.5 pre and I have the same error as Vlad_savitsky. Thanks for the contribution anyway. Cheers

Nice, but does this pan out in implementation? After spending a few days with Node, I truly believe that this will be the go-to project for the future of the real-time web.

I have installed node 0.3.0 and try your script. And I have got an errror:
—————————
node.js:50
throw e; // process.nextTick error, or 'error' event on first tick
^

Where can be the problem? I don't know node.js well to handle this myself. Please help me to fix it.

Here is a nice screencast: http://www.videorolls.com/watch/node-js-screencast . I believe it may be of some help.

Sweet! That works

Thanks britg, very fun stuff! I'm planning to build a small comet server using node.js

Best,
John

Hey John - from your console output, it looks like you are making requests to the wrong script.

"example.js:28 ..."

The name of the script, if you used the same copy from the github repo, should be 'gamelobby.js'

Let me know if that helps!

Hi! This example does not seem to be working with 2009.06.30 node-0.1.0.tar.gz

When I call /join?player=john then

The game lobby has started!
example.js:28: TypeError: Object [object Object] has no method 'respond'
server.respond(200, players);
^

But THANKS for putting this blog post out there. Really exciting!
Best,
John
