Problems in BroadCast Items to Client

Question

I am implementing Auction System. I saved items on Server in a file called item.txt and i displayed them on Server but now i want to broadcast items on Client side as well so he/she can select items and do bidding on that. Here is piece of code where items are saved and the broadcast method as well.
Now if there are any ideas so items can be sent in anyway on client side.
ObjectOutputStream oos=new ObjectOutputStream(new FileOutputStream("item.txt"));
items=new Item[]{new Item("Troy","Action",200),
new Item("X-Men","Science",100)};
for(i=0;i<items.length;i++)
oos.writeObject(items);
oos.close();
ObjectInputStream ois=new ObjectInputStream(new FileInputStream("item.txt"));
int itemCount=0;
try{
do{
Item it=(Item)ois.readObject();
itemCount++;
System.out.println(itemCount);
System.out.println("ItemName: "+it.getName());
System.out.println("ItemDescription: "+it.getDescription());
System.out.println("ItemPrice: "+it.getPrice());
}while(true);
public synchronized void broadcast(int ID, String input)
{for (int i = 0; i < clientCount; i++){
if(clients[i].getID() != ID)
clients[i].send(ID + ": " + input); // sends messages to clients
}notifyAll();
public void startTime(){}
ActionListener task=new ActionListener()
{public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent evt) {
broadcast(1,"There are # ofitems available Choose ");
startTime();}

I've told you before and i'll say it again. This is not the forum to post application design questions. If you have a specific issue with Socket Programming (i.e. you're using sockets in an application and something isnt working as you expect it to) post here, if you have no idea about network programming you'll want to have a look at forums more suitable for that. Try "New To Jave Technology" or "Java Programming" or "Patterns and OO Design".
Like the previous times i'll reply anyway :
{for (int i = 0; i >< clientCount; i++){Is incorrect, should probably be i < clientCount. And i dont see you calling wait() anywhere so what does notifyAll() do for you? Where do you add the action listener and to what?. You try to broadcast your item to client 1, in your test cases this should probably be 0 since your iteration starts at 0.
Your Java basics dont really seem good enough for you to tackle this, you seem to use methods without knowing what they actually do. If this is just a hobby project then i wish you the best of luck, nothing quite as educational as having to figure it all out by yourself. Good luck, but do try to post in the correct forum.
