If you want to sleep for, say, 5 seconds in CF then you can do something
like this.

a way of pausing in CF code?

2001-11-16 Thread Gyrus

What's the best way of getting the processing of a
CF template to 'pause' for a certain amount of time?

I'm testing for the value of a certain application
variable. I want a DB query to be processed only if the
value of this var gets set to 'true' within, say, 5
seconds. At the moment I've got a CFLOOP that keeps
going round, testing the var, as long as the time isn't
5 seconds later than when it started:












[SQL]
 --->





(The app has to be in CF 4.0, hence simple CFLOCK and no
Duplicate).

Is this long-winded? Anything more elegant? Any suggestions
appreciated :)
