Brower timeout... help 1

[smack1]

Hey guys, I have a very lengthy process I'm running through on one of my templates. IE times out before the I get conformation that the job has completed. It also kills the processing.

Any ideas on how to extend the timeout settings or work around it?

Thanks in advance!

When you call the template through your browser,
include the "RequestTimeout" parameter.

[URL unfurl="true"]http://some.domain.com/myTemplate.cfm?[/URL]

RequestTimeout=500

This indicates that the ColdFusion server should wait up to
500 seconds before timing out.

NOTE: This will not override any NT Server settings, so
your web server could timeout before the CF server does!

I'll try that. I am just running this on a development PC. I am quering an Excel spreadsheet with 18K+ records and writing it to a DB. I am having to do some data checking to maintain integrity of the data. I'm kind of new at this. It seems to be taking a long time to process. I'm just pulling one column at a time. Does sound logical? There are about 20 columns. I am looping through the insert query replacing empty cells with a flag.

Thanks for the suggestion. Any other suggestions are welcome.

Matt
