I would probably use some sort of progress meter on the long-running page you might want to halt -- which will slow it down some overall also, although probably not a noticeable amount in most cases... What you really need is a way to interract with the running page from the client side -- which means, another page load, which is fine, it's just a matter of figuring out how that is accomplished... The fileexists() isn't a bad idea -- you could for instance have a "stop" button that produces a popup window that says "stopping the process, please wait", which then creates the halt flag on the server. Use cfflush after the button is displayed and before the long running process begins, so that the button is visible and then display the progress below the button. When the long running process sees the flag file it deletes it, aborts the process, closes the popup window and displays a message indicating that the process has been cancelled.
