Javascript TCP connection to server

I have created server daemon, that produces some data, like messages and so. But, what im interested in - client monitoring. For example i have web page, and i need to establish persistent Tcp connection to server and show all incoming data into textbox. I know it can be done with flash, but im searching for JS implementation.

Is it possible and what`s the best practices ?

What you're asking for is known as Comet. Plenty of server software and client libraries exist - see the linked Wikipedia page.
