I am developing an web application that will use web sockets to dynamically update the website for the user. The idea is to have changes in the back-end engine be dynamically transmitted. In order to do that, I want to use a Node.js server as a link between the web browser and back-end engine. Unfortunately, Node.js/JavaScript does not support SCTP sockets, which is what the back-end engine is using. Can you think of any way around this? It would be a shame if I couldn't use Socket.io and would have to deploy my own Javascript plugin & Java websocket server.
