I'm guessing that they will support being able to get a response from your spawned threads. > As I said the actual practical uses for this kind of thing > in a web > application aren't all that common (think of the really > good CF or ASP > applications you've seen - none of them support this - I > may be wrong, but I > don't think PHP supports it either).

Not sure if it's been since the beginning or why it was included, but I know it's been available to them. Though I remember hearing that it's also sort of like handing a howitzer to a 10 yr old -- hard to know if the spawned PERL threads will consume the server if you're not the one programming them. s. isaac dealey 954.927.5117 new epoch : isn't it time for a change? add features without fixtures with the onTap open source framework http://www.sys-con.com/story/?storyid=44477&DE=1 http://www.sys-con.com/story/?storyid=45569&DE=1 http://www.fusiontap.com ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Special thanks to the CF Community Suite Silver Sponsor - RUWebby http://www.ruwebby.com Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:187351 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
