To change the timeout value that Internet Explorer uses: 1. Start the Registry Editor 2. Go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER \ Software \ Microsoft \ Windows \ CurrentVersion \ InternetSettings 3. Select New > DWORD from the Edit menu 4. Call it ReceiveTimeout with a data value of SECONDS*1000 5. Restart your computer For example, if you want the timeout to be 5 minutes, set the ReceiveTimeout data value to 300000 (300 * 1000) Rory McKinley Nebula Solutions +27 82 857 2391 [EMAIL PROTECTED] "There are 10 kinds of people in this world, those who understand binary and those who don't" (Unknown) ----- Original Message ----- From: "James E Hicks III" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, October 16, 2003 5:48 PM Subject: [PHP] How do you keep browser from timing out during lengthy process > I have a program that when an operator clicks on a button initiates an ftp > transfer of a large file.
