Hi, Setting the timeout serverside is one way to do this, but this does not overcome client-side timeout which can cause client-side hangup (especially through proxies).
Another way is to send a heartbeat fo soke kind - such as sending the header and every 10 seconds sending a token line of html (for example sending "<br/>.").This will keep the connection alive for as long as you need, no matter what the client waiting time is.
