Refresh screen during ASP Loop?

[cusimar9]

I have a web page generated by an ASP VBScript

Is there any way I can have the results be displayed while they're being calculated, instead of making the user wait minutes while the loops are running?

Possibly not, but you can experiment with the following to see what kind of results you might achieve:

Response.Flush

Maybe this could help!

Thanks guys, that worked a treat!

I've written an ASP script that basically spiders a whole site and returns every link it finds

Its to confirm that a 'link partner' does actually have a link to your site

Spent the whole of yesterday looking for such a script/program and couldn't find it so decided to write it myself

I personally think its really useful and I'd like to host it for people to use, but due to the nature of the search it could take 10 minutes to spider a single site... is it going to slow the hell out of my other pages hosted on the same domain?

as far as i have noticed, pages hanging up like that only affect the session. unless the page is getting really processor intensive, which this script doesnt sounds like it does at all. its simply waiting for the request from other servers. so your other pages should be affected.
