Have you guys wanted to have stock tickers on ur desktop/ web pages,
but can't use applets as they were heavy, too much configuration than
here is one approach and light weight solution all for free.
Ajax based solution refreshes data at configured time interval and you
don't have to wait for your favourite stock to appear in ticker. You
have all latest view auto updated and for all the stocks at one go.
In my approach i am using ajax to get data from yahoo, i am not saving
it just using it and using prototype.js modifying the csv and on the
fly displaying it in table.

Hope it helps as it is based on Web2.0 technologies and is super light
weight as is using only ajax.
