Yeah, when you buy a PDF book from here: http://www.pragmaticprogrammer.com/ They generate the PDF in response, and it sometimes takes a while. They basically issue a ticket, and they email you when the response is completed. I had a task one time that could run a long time, so I had the browser meta-refresh on the job status page until the job was completed. The only problem with that approach is if you have a -lot- of clients, refreshing frequently will put more load on your server. You can either slow down the poll or add servers... --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
