What I do in similar situations, such as a web service that gets the top
legal news headlines, is to grab those on a scheduled basis in the
background and store the results to the local disk.  Then, my web page/CFM
page just grabs what I have locally.  That way, it's quick, it should never
pause due to network/Internet issues and is close enough to live that no one
can tell.

Subject: Don't wait for webservice?

I would like to use a web service to invoke a function on a remote server,
but I explicitly *don't* want my local server to wait for the remote server
to complete the action.  I just want my local server to send the command and
then move on.  Is this sort of thing possible?  And if so, is it considered
an okay idea?

Any help is appreciated.
