The ColdFusion code will continue running even if the user closes the browser, shuts down their computer, and goes home. Be careful if you do leave the browser open, I have had problems where Internet Explorer would re-request the page after about 8 hours of processing.
Truthfully, if I were you, I would use a scheduled task to run every minute and process X number of records. If you really want to make a single request wait a minute doing a thread.sleep() will perform better since an endless loop checking the minute over and over will probably peg your CPU. ~Brad -------- Original Message -------- Subject: Re: Long running CF Program From: Scott Taylor <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Tue, September 23, 2008 9:12 am To: CF-Talk <cf-talk@houseoffusion.com> We have a number of programs that loop through data just like this. I haven't hit one yet that didn't continue merrily on its way until the loop was finished. I'm pretty sure that it will continue running.
