How is this achievable.

How can you create something simular to a updatable text area which Google Wave has.

For example

While im typing, for example "I don't understand" it shows what I have currently written. It will display it on a page viewable by all.

Im guessing this is AJAX.

You are right, this is Ajax not PHP

No something that another user can see what im have typed while typing it.

So if i have only written "Hello my fr" without yet submitting it appears on a page while im typing.

Got a link to an example of what you mean. Your description sounds like autocomplete functionality as shown in the link I posted before.

For those not familiar with Google Wave.

As User A starts typing in a textbox on the "wave"

User B, who could be in a different country, let alone a different network, can see what User A is typing, straight away. As if User B is watching User A's screen. (well except it will Say "User A" after what he is typing)

User B has to be invited to User A's "Wave" for this to work.

User C, who is a loner and not invited to User A's wave, can not even see the wave.
