That's a good way to peak out your processor at 100%. If you do this a lot, it's gonna kill your performance.
I'd imagine a better way to do it would be to invoke the native "sleep" function in the win32 api - there's a cfx_sleep (freeware on tag exchange); I'm not sure if it does this. --- Billy Cravens -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, April 09, 2002 8:02 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: Pausing using CF <cfscript> /** * Pauses the processing for CF for a specified amount of time * * @param seconds number of seconds you would like to pause CF for * @author Tony Petruzzi ([EMAIL PROTECTED] * @version 1, April, 09 2002 */ function PauseCF(seconds){ var currenttime = now(); while(DateDiff("s", currenttime, now()) LTE seconds){ continue; } } </cfscript> Here is a function a wrote to do this.

Can anyone think of a way that I can achieve a pause for like 30 seconds to a minute between iterations in a loop? would another loop inside work that did nothing or is there a better way?
