I tried that, but it didn't matter much. What happens
is I have a link. When I click on it, the browser
hangs. If I switch to another application on my
desktop whose window covers the browser, and then I
switch back to the browser, the graphics of the
browser is not redrawn. I use IE, and the windows
logo isn't spinning and and green progress bar is
going nowhere.
Then, after about 30 seconds, the browser recieves
some partial html code and stops. The html is cut
off, and doesn't correspond to the point in the code
where the time consuming loop is. I see the process
still going on the server, and know it completes
everything it is supposed to.
I checked the apache conf file, and Timeout is set to
300. I don't know if that's the right variable for
this. Why would it cut out after only 30 seconds?
