Loading iframes simultaneously

[rico14d]

Hi,

Ive got a page which can have upto 6 iframes in it.

My problem is that each of the frames has an ASP page which is doing a lot of server side processing and can take upto 30 seconds to process. At the moment, only 1 iframe is processing at a time so the page can take upto 3 minutes to complete.

Is there any way I can make the iframes send the URL's simultaneously and not one at a time?

Thanks,
Rich.

Hi Rich,

I Assume that the sources you put in your iframes come from the same host... Am I right?

IF, then the problem is that the host (server) is setup to have a limitation on number of simultaneous connection per visitor (client/IP). Usually that limit is set to two (2):

- one connection for downloading (if applicable)

- another for browsing (while downloading a file from the same server)

Again, IF I am right about this, then just change the server setup to handle more simultaneous connections ... If you have access to do so.

HOWEVER : Just remember that it will put a *heavy* load on the server if there is many users on your page at the same time!!!

Good Luck §;O)

Rich,

Well, I don't use IIS. Prefers Apache. I tried to google it for a while without finding anything really usefull.

However, have a look at this link (Tactic 7) to see if that can get you going in the right direction. It apears to be something you set up in the registry (yucks), although I would look in the control panel/administrative tools for something before hacking the registry. Anyway, here's the link:

Good Luck with it!!
