I am working on my internal IT system for my business. It is, of course, mod_perl based, as is the rest of what I do (algebra.com etc).
As a part of it, I have an intranet web form that starts a task, which happens to take a long time, such as minutes. I would like to handle this correctly. While I read some helpful suggestions, my first instinct would be to look for some existing framework based on mod_perl, instead of trying to reinvent the wheel. Would anyone happen to have a suggestion of such a perl module or framework for executing long queries in a nice and graceful manner? Specifically: 1) Start a long query 2) Display an intermediate page that self refreshes 3) Display progress of a task 4) Displaying correct results when task completes. Thanks! i
