What happened to Response.Flush?

[tlhawkins]

Hey,

I'm working on moving a site from IIS5 to IIS6 and ran into a problem with Response.Flush.

We had been using it to output a "Waiting..." page while the rest of the results loaded, then when the full page was loaded it would hide the waiting page.

This was accomplished by creating the waiting page, then flushing it, then creating the results page, then flushing it.

In IIS6 the Flush doesn't really seem to do anything.
I've tried turning Response.Buffer off and on, in IIS admin as well as on the page with no change. The page always waits until it's fully loaded before anything shows in the browser.

Anyone know of a way to get IIS6 to allow the response buffer to be flushed to the client?

Thanks

Not that this would be a lot of help, but I'm using IIS 6 and response.flush is working fine for me. The only thing I've done is set the buffer = true, same thing you did.
