Re: Sending data to browser periodically

Hi, I have a headache due to the 5 minute timeout limitation of IE. My query takes (you've guessed) longer than 5 minutes to perform. It is a query that summarises over 2 million rows from an Oracle 8i database. I am developing an intranet site so the user is prepared to wait 10 mins for this report to run. The question is: is there a way of sending something to the browser periodically (so that IE thinks that all is well!) until I am ready to send the table data back? Thanks for any help --Clive PS: I know I can add a registry entry ReceiveTimeout; I don't have the luxury of being able to do this to every user pc (many 100's)
