Can you provide a few more details about the specific implementation you are looking to build?

If you are referring to the XML services display, this simply formats/displays specific XML documents - there is no scripting or other 'dynamic' capability, beyond refreshing the entire page via Refresh header.

If you are talking about using the Java midlet capabilities, please let us know which API components you are looking to use, and what you require from 'long poll' functionality.  It should be possible to use the midlet HTTP request object to call a URL, providing a lengthy timeout to wait for the server to respond, i.e. the Ajax/long-poll pattern.

For what it's worth....

We've hit a problem using long polling in a midlet, works ok in the
emualtor but on the device it blocks and causes the UI to freeze - we
asked for a fixed and was told it would be solved but we were never
given a fix

We ended up making a request once every 10 seconds in a background
thread and waited for zero seconds on the server - not as good but it's
the best we could get

Hope this helps
