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.

<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. All you have to do to use it is
assign the function to a variable.

<cfset temp = PauseCF(10)>

Have fun!

Hello.

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?

Mike
