texte = WebDNA has no concept of persistent variables that remain available across pages. All variables are purged from RAM when WebDNA finishes processing a page. The only ways to get information from one page to another are through URL parameters, form variables, cookies, or writing to disc. Of those, writing to disc is the most efficient way for passing larger amounts of data like you're dealing with.My guess is that writing to a file and reading it back on the progress page will not be a terrible burden.A couple questions: How frequent will the hits be on this complex search? Do the results change from one hit to the next, or could you do the search or a portion of it once and preserve the intermediate results for recall on future hits?- brianOn Thursday, March 6, 2003, at 07:22 AM, lb Lawrence wrote:> I thought to this solutions of writing a file, > But once the information is in RAM wouldn't it be possible to catch it > back > in an other page. > > Lawrence > -- Brian Fries, BrainScan Software -- http://www.brainscansoftware.com -- ------------------------------------------------------------- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list .
