Morning folks,<br>
I'm currently using mod_perl, and thinking that chaining content headers is the way to go with this, but here is my dillema. (Besides my spelling errors..)<br><br>
I need to run some stored procedures that take upwards of a minute to generate result sets. Ok, thats grand but <i>I dont want the browser to sit there and twiddle</i>.<br><br>
I'd like to display an animated gif. Simple. Right? I hope.<br><br>
I'm looking into <b>stacked handlers</b> in my mod_perl code, but I'm not sure if this is what I need. Is it something in Content-Disposition?<br><br>
1) Push 'Waiting...' animated gif<br>
2) Process report, Perl waits for result set<br>
3) Perl pushes the report html to the browser as if it opened in a <code>target = _blank</code> window. IE: That same window... <br>
Stumped (or rather -> RTFMing),
