As a result, various methods have been proposed and used in order to realize two-way communication on the web. In this paper, these two-way communication methods are briefly introduced and analyzed their strong and weak points in the aspect of implementation, time responsibility, server load and compatibility. Base on the analytical results, it is proposed guidelines for selecting the best method according to the application type and the operating environment.
