Hi

I suppose, that my problem is of interest to many readers:

While long time task (i.e reading a remote Pc's WMI), a user should
see either the progressbar or "a DIV history log" such as "Now
enumerate softwares...". That must be shown in the same aspx page where
the user started the heavy task. The popups or other pages are not
allowed.

What is the best way to implement the progress indicator?

Thanks Steve.

Futher question: Have you ever implemented the progress bar (or
similar) without "jumping" from page to page? Ajax, multithreating...?

Actually my target is to have a "collecting" listbox in a aspx page,
that shows to user, which WMI item is being read from remote machine.
But I want, that the listbox is refreshed only while reading task, not
the whole page. Perhaps substitution-control would be suitable to
provide a solution. ??
