Hi Mark, One way to do it is have a page refresh that checks for a completion flag. The page/action would poll the object with the flag on eahc refresh, when set, display completion message.

I can run these files fine, but they take a few minutes to run... How can I tell the user when they have finished running? This seems to be a sort of push technology I am in need of, but maybe there is another way?. I can definitely tell them to wait for a few minutes, but how do I actually tell them when the process is done (since there is not another page request at this time.) Has anyone done something similar to this? Thanks, Mark --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
