I'm trying to cancel an AjaxRequest on the server when the server is taking too long.
ajReq = new AjaxRequest( .); // normal call which works fine //server is taking too long so User hits "cancel" button. // some requests finally return after minutes with "server time of 30 sec. exceeded" or something like that. // I tried to cancel the request by executing the following code: ajReq.transport.abort(); This solves the problem on the client and stops the "loading" message, but the server keeps executing and will for a long time. My server is not robust and is now clogged up. I'm not sure what will happen on a better server. I'm not skilled on the server stuff and am doing the server side programing in PHP and sometimes a request to draw map takes very long. Server is running apache2. Does http request .abort() actually tell the server to stop? Or do I just have an unsolvable problem. Google has been no help. Probably my search terms. Any ideas??
