Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The present invention relates to communication and computer technology, in particular to a communication method and system based on a Web server. Background technique
[0002] Currently, sockets (SOCKET) are generally used for network communication between clients and servers. Using the SOCKET communication method, the transmission speed is generally fast and stable. However, in many network environments, especially intranets, network firewalls are set up, and only basic ports are allowed, such as port 80 for web browsing. Other ports are not allowed, such as instant The chat port for communication is 8000. In this case, the transmission control protocol (TCP) or user datagram protocol (UDP) cannot be used to directly connect to the server, so the method of direct SOCKET connection between the client and the server has some limitations.
[0003] In order to break through this limitation, the following two methods can be adopted in the prior art: [0...
