Hi Miller, It seems there's no another solution so I will use
<form target=window1 .....> That case report of the cgi will be targeted to "window1" , that is a hidden frame or a window which was opened with jscript. > Well, I don't see why you don't just send the client a confirmation that the > job has been started I use a jscript for this purpose that deletes the text of the input field of the form , and use another frame with shtml that has 1-3 sec. refresh time, and jscript in it with ssi-cgi , that will send back the new message only , that will be appended to the document. (simple chat) thanks for replying Zol ----- Original Message ----- From: MILLER David R. <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Perl-Win32-Web (E-mail) <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, June 12, 2002 12:35 PM Subject: RE: form question > Well, I don't see why you don't just send the client a confirmation that the > job has been started, whether or not the process returns any content. > However, you can try returning a 204 header, although you may not get > consistent behaviour from all browsers.
