I'd >be interested to know if this is true or not.Based on the 3 responses I will doing some testing over the weekend. I think the issue is not the speed of webcat, but the fact that the person browsing the page gets a feeling that a pure html doc loads faster. Example.. A page with approx 580 returned results on it where it has 10 embedded searches within searches ie: [search]1 [search]3 [search]3 [/search]3 to 10 searches [/search]2 [/search]1Webcatalog does everything before displaying anything An html page starts to load and display, and the user sees things on the page immediately. Now the page is still loading it is just loading below the visible window of there browser. So the feel is the page is faster, where in fact webcatalog might have displayed the whole page faster, but was slower at displaying just the first part of the page That is my take on what is being reported to me. Now when the user backs up to this page the search does not have to re-occur if it is rendered in htmlWhat brought this all on was converting a hand created page that is a total pain in the butt to administer to webcat of an auto-cad drawing library we keep with rev levels and all kinds of stuff. The multi data bases it looks at total approx 3 megs of data. The person who administered this page is on medical leave and I was asked to update it. One look at it and I put it on webcat :) The people that use this page many many times a day claim it is now slower. And they hate the page when it first set it up and used [shownext]. The one thing in writing this response that popped into my head was trying the [elapsedtime] tag and see what kind of numbers we are generating. Again I am not saying webcat is slow by any means. What I am saying is that on a complex search page it seems slow based on the way it displays. Now this is not dial up users. This is over a 10-T lan. Keep in mind that the autocad users that use this page are on PeeCee's and love to shoot bullets at Mac's. So if I rendered the page back out to html I can shut them up and have the ease of administration by using webcat :)=============================================== Gary Richter PanaVise Products, Inc. 7540 Colbert Dr. Reno, Nevada 89511 Ph: 702.850.2900 Fx: 702.850.2929 Email: grichter@panavise.com http://www.panavise.com ===============================================
