RE: [Openinteract-help] outputting to the user's browser before t hehandler completes

[Chris M. <Chr...@te...>]

I worked around it (wrote wrote to DB, gave a splash page and meta refreshed
to the long-running handler whit the record id in the URL GET style so that
I could get at the data I needed.  Anyway, I'm not in a rush anymore, but it
would still be nice to know if the below is possible.

Thanks,

Hello,

just curious to know if it is possible to output some stuff to the user's
browser at the beginning of a handler.  What I'm wanting to do is give the
user a 'processing...' message while a handler of mine works (it takes a
long time...).  When it completes I redirect to another page (which I do
know how to do...) so I'm not concerned about duplicating headers or
anything.

Any thoughts?

Thanks,

Chris McDaniel
