Progress in Asp

I am executing an ASp that is taking a while to process... But I would like to indicate progress back to the client... Any ideas how this can be realised. Thanks

is the time consuming part in a loop at all, if so you could do the age old, dot every few iterations, or else just do a dot every few lines of code, or function calls.

I think his problem is that he has buffered the output and the browser doesnt get to *see* the dots until everything is executed.

Look into turning off buffering so that html goes directly to the client once output. It can mess up some coding though (however it has a decent error message for that).
