Write Line to Browser while long running query executing 1

[OldWilly]

I want to write a line to the browser saying
"Now processing ...."
while a long-running query is executing.
However my message doesn't appear until the query
is finished. (so I look at a blank page until it is done).
..... any ideas ???

&quot;Now Processing...&quot;<CFFLUSH>

Need to read up on the tag in cf reference though...

We're not running on CF version 5

OK... there should be a CF_FLUSH in the devex tag gallery...

I usually put an intermediate page in that says &quot;Now processing&quot; maybe with a little animated GIF or something. On that page, I have a form that calls the page that does the actual processing. Use the form to pass any information that needs to be used, and use an onLoad handler in your BODY tag to submit the form.

The &quot;Now processing&quot; page will display until the next page is done doing its thing.
