This is done with AJAX. You will still be making a request, but the page
contents will only be rewritten in whatever container you are using whenever
there is a new message. I am working on something like this while working
on a tool management app. It isn't perfect for some browsers, but it has
been working from my laptop.

Play around with some AJAX technology and test and retest.
Take it easy, and hope it helps!
