cheekycj,

Can I set the length of timeout from the browser?
"Waiting for Reply....."  
I am using active server page to write my webpage.
SQL Statement is execute in my asp. But, it take more than 30 second to reply the answer.

Leo cheung
you can increase the timeout using

www.mysite.com/path/file.asp?requesttimeout=5000000
(time is in milliseconds)

Another thing you can use is buffer the output.. I know it is possible in ASP.. I will have to dig to find out how.

If you've used ASP. add =>

The ScriptTimeout property specifies the amount of runtime in seconds for a script before it terminates. The default value is 90 seconds.

The following code causes a script to timeout if the script takes more than 150 seconds to complete.

<% Server.ScriptTimeout = 150 %>

The value of the ScriptTimeout property can be retrieved as well.

<% timeout = Server.ScriptTimeout %>
It is time to clean this abandoned question up.  

I am putting it on a clean up list for CS.
