I am sorry if I sounded like an ass. I really did not mean it that
way.
It would have been better if I would have said that http was designed
to be a stateless connection, and so would deliberately not include
features to do what you are asking. You could, however implement a
home grown solution as some folks have responded.
The real question is would you really want to do this? I think that
if your goal is to improve the performance of your application, you
should consider other options. It is a good idea that you have but I
think that it would be costly and complicated to implement. Other solutions may have
a higher return on investment.
I am interested in your final solution. If it works for you I would
love to learn what you did.

Not sure, but my boss who has done web development in other areas seems to
think it's possible. Not sure if he knows what he's talking about though :)

Well, I waited a while and decided to ask this question again (WITHOUT read
receipts this time!!! :) (what a waste of email bandwidth)). Is there any
way to determine if the browser that requested a page is still waiting for
the response? I would like to terminate lengthy queries and computations if
the browser asking for the page is no longer waiting for it. We're using
Linux 6.2 with tomcat 3.2.1 standalone and using Servlets. Any thougts?
Is this impossible? Anybody? Anybody?
