But I will add one thing to your statement, if your using it for large file uploads to the server it could take awhile before the user is even aware of a problem, the webmaster can receive notification no matter what but for someone with a slow link and sending a 1 meg file could take 5 mins before they know something has gone wrong. But at least they would be aware of it, I guess this is why I like CF5.0 because you can flush the output and say uploading until the script finishes, just something someone might wish to keep in mind.

You can also inform system administrators via email if a file operation fails. There are many ways you can use this functionality to create a damage control system for your apps. > -----Original Message----- > From: Jochem van Dieten [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Monday, January 07, 2002 7:25 PM > To: CF-Talk > Subject: Re: CFLOCK on files > > > Kelly Matthews wrote: > > > as far as I know it's not something that can be done.
