Problems with Response.Flush

[Frank]

Hello all. On our site's pages, I have a waiting animation whom's HTML
is Response.Write'd out and then flushed in our Page_Load. On some of
our servers, the waiting page works fine. On others, the response.flush
doesn't work til the page is completely done loading, which completely
voids the point of being there in the first place. Any ideas? I tried
playing around with Response.Buffer; temporarily turning it off when
I'm writing out the loading HTML then turning it back on; nada. Any
ideas?

Don't forget, you can still use classic ASP in ASP.NET. This will give
you much more predictable results for an interstitial page:

<img src="loading.gif">
</html>
<% Response.Flush(); %>

<% DoMyHeavyLifting(); %>

No you misunderstand. The example code you gave is EXACTLY what I did.
After flush was called it did nothing (in other words; it didn't flush
immediately). It just waited til the end of the page's processing to
send the output to the browser. I'm not using an interstitial page;
it's the same page.
Thanks for trying though, it is appreciated.

re:

To be precise, you can use ASP *along with* ASP.NET,
but not *in* ASP.NET.

ASP and ASP.NET are handled by different ISAPI applications.

We were having this problem with an user control inside of an .aspx
The solution took time but was simple, we extracted all code that was on the Page_Load event handler of the CONTROL and then put it in the html part of it using good and old <% %> syntax.
It worked for us. Those are our 2 cents.

If you have to use more than one handful of toilet paper, it's always best
to flush twice.
