Thanks for the tip, James... I tried to use the setting "async: false" in the ajax parameters, but that didn't seem to have any effect.
I wish I could somehow let the image processing continue even if the "close" button on the success dialog is clicked. But that causes the processing to stop. It might work if I weren't re-writing the property list on the screen after adding a property, but that defeats the whole purpose of using ajax. Clients have commented about the length of time it takes for all the image processing to occur. I even tried putting the image processing part of the cfc method into a cfthread, but that didn't seem to help, either. I'll check out your link...perhaps that's the answer.

It sounds like you need a synchronous request e.g.: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/133310/how-can-i-get-jquery-to-perform-a- synchronous-rather-than-asynchronous-ajax-req Of course, if you have to wait for a response, it may be worth simply doing a normal post rather than using ajax. mxAjax / CFAjax docs and other useful articles: http://www.bifrost.com.au/blog/ 2009/9/23 Rick Faircloth <[email protected]>: > > Got a combination CF & jQuery question for those of you who use > both.usually, I can get > > a better response from folks who use CF & jQuery than I can from those who > use only jQuery. > > > > I've got an ajax call (not AJAX call.) that inserts property data into a > database then processes from 1 to usually > > no more than around 10 images, creating multiple sizes, etc. > > > > The problem I'm having is that the ajax call, being asynchronous, returns > back to the calling > > page and continues executing instructions before the images are all > processed. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Want to reach the ColdFusion community with something they want?
