How do I prevent a browse timing out while a script runs?
I have a cgi script (HP-UX K-shell) that performs database activities but sometimes it takes so long because of the amount of data being processed, the browser times out, or perhaps it's the web server.
Can I send anything back from my shell script to 'keep alive' the browser?
I do not want to increase the time out period of the web server.
Thanks,
Ed.

Re: How do I prevent a browse timing out while a script runs?
One way that I can think of is to modify your cgi to print a "refresh" page while executing the cgi in back ground that prepares the result document.
For ex your initial cgi should take care of the following to be printed while keeping the original cgi in background to prepare result.html.
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="10;URL=result.htm" />
After 10 seconds, it is going to display result.html that was created by the cgi in background. You can even use a cgi script here to check if the result.html is completed. Else you can print the same refresh html again

Re: How do I prevent a browse timing out while a script runs?
Sridhar, your idea sounds like it's just what I was looking for.
My Script is actually an admin tool and so won't be used by users 'general public' as such.
Thanks again,
Ed.
