That surely will do the trick, what a hack... ;-))
I'll give it a try to see how well it functions, cheers...

Hi Taco,

use cfschedule with action="" to create a task which runs once at
now() + the scheduler interval to make sure it gets picked up.  It
will be stored as a schedule and triggered under a different thread,
while your template goes about it's business.
