Open a new window, then bring your main window to the front, via _javascript_. If you want to allow the user to navigate away from your page, this would be the only way to do so and allow the long running process to continue.

You could call another CF page in an image tag - it'll run, but the rest of
your page should download fine (although the browser won't consider it
"done").
Something like this:
<img src="" height="1"
width="1">

Subject: Releasing client to do another process?
Hi folks,
Okay, here's my situation. I have a process that I want to run whenever
a user registers for my system. The problem is, this process can take
some time and I don't want to make the user wait for it to complete. Is
there any way in CF that I can, in a sense, 'fire off a process' but
release the client to continue on to the next page so they don't have to
wait for it to finish?
Any ideas are welcomed and appreciated. Thanks!
