Server-Side Code Example - HTML SSE API

For the example above to work, you need a server capable of sending data updates (like PHP or ASP).

The server-side event stream syntax is simple. Set the "Content-Type" header to "text/event-stream". Now you can start sending event streams.

Example of Server-Side Code Example Code in PHP

Code in PHP

demo_sse.php

Example: PHP

 <?php
header('Content-Type: text/event-stream');
header('Cache-Control: no-cache');

$time = date('r');
echo "data: The server time is: {$time}\n\n";
flush();
?>

Example of Server-Side Code Example Code in PHP Code in ASP

Code in ASP

demo_sse.asp

Example: ASP

<%
Response.ContentType = "text/event-stream"
Response.Expires = -1
Response.Write("data: The server time is: " & now())
Response.Flush()
%>

Code explained: Server-Side Code Example

Set the "Content-Type" header to "text/event-stream"
Specify that the page should not cache
Output the data to send (Always start with "data: ")
Flush the output data back to the web page
