Hi
I have a Cocoon application that provides a front-end to a reporting system, and some
of the reports take quite a while to run - in the order of 5-10 minutes. I need to
provide a feature whereby the user submits the report request and a screen appears
that polls the report every 10 seconds
Well one possible solution is for the report generator to write a file to the hard
drive on the web server
The browser would poll cocoon (action/xsp/..) to check if the file exists or not. if
so then return the generated report file otherwise return the status page.
As to the status page,
