Hi,
The timeout will probably depend on the servlet engine, may be able to
adjust in the 'properties' file. An alternate approach may be to fire up
a thread to run the report, and pass back an 'instant' message to the
browser. A method (run from 'GET' or whatever)could check whether the
thread has completed and only pass back the report if this is the case.
Cheers,
Danny.
