Comet & PHP: How to use Comet with a PHP Chat System?

Solution
You may want to look at WebChat2 This project uses comet, AJAX, and a custom HTTP server to communicate with IRC via sockets.
Problem
I have to build a simple chat system in PHP using Comet. I don't know what would be the best approach to this project. What is the best technique (cross-browser would be nice) to use, and how to implement it? What libraries can I use that already have comet support. (I don't want to use the Bayeux Protocol) I already have a PHP backend running for the chat system, but I need some ideas for the interaction between client and server. Thank you all in advance. My regards.
