Hi,
You need to have a read thread.
Basicly in this thread you have a connection sitting in a while loop
waiting for a read from the server. This works because you can still
write while sitting in the loop waiting for a read from the client.

the read thread just waits for commands from the server, for example
you could respond when a command of "incoming_popup" is recieved, then
you know that the client should then read a stream from the server that
will have the "popup" message.

Hope this helps, I am sure others will chime in soon.
