Karl,
I think I got this UDF/Custom Tag from Spike's blog a few weeks ago:
<CFPARAM name="attributes.milliseconds" default="1">
<CFSCRIPT>
function sleep(timeMillis) {
var thread = createObject("java", "java.lang.Thread");
thread.sleep(timeMillis);
}
sleep(#attributes.milliseconds#);
</CFSCRIPT>
it causes the process to "sleep" for the specified no of milliseconds.

Subject: [ cf-dev ] Forcing a job to wait / file attributes
Hello,
I'm using CFFILE to grab a spooled text file so I can grab out certain
fields and then populate a table.
How do I ensure that the file I'm grabbing is complete, and not still being
written to? Also, if it is being written to, how can I force the page to
wait for, say 5 seconds, and then try again?
Thanks,
Karl.
