Hi Everybody;
I fixed the mysterious buffer problem.
I was getting frustrated because I tried every tip people had to offer
before I posted my question.
Someone repeated what I thought of about being careful to send only
complete HTML tables back to the client. If your data is in an HTML
table, and you don't have a </table> you will not see it in Netscape.
I've known this for a long time so when I designed my site to send
things piecemeal I made sure that each out.prinln() had a complete table
in it.
It didn't help. Someone else mentioned this when I posted for help and
then it came to me this morning.
I'm using a template the marketing department asked me to use that is
one big fat giant table with the dynmaically generated contents stuffed
iside of a cell.
I yanked all of the table code for the template out and found that my
code does indeed work in sending things back piecemeal.
I'm glad I was forced to think about the table tag issue again.
Thanks to everyone for the help. I learned some good stuff
