Window.Open issue

[sheila11]

Hi All,

I have an HTML table with Book-Name in first column and a link in the last column. The link opens a new window, which displays a report on the book. The report is prepared by an asp.net page called Report.aspx

When user clicks on a link, the widow opens, and works fine. If user clicks on the link in another row while the first window is still processing the report, the second window opens fine (I use taget='_blank'), but does not start processing until the first has completed its work.

I need to get these windows to work independent of each other, in parallel. Is that possible?

TIA,
Sheila

Bear in mind that when you call a function (in this case within report.aspx) you are running that function once in the session. If you try to run it again before 'Exit Function/Sub' then it will likely say "wait."

How are you transferring the user to the report.aspx page?
Is it via standard Hyperlink or using Response.Redirect or Server.Transfer?

are you using the VS web dev server (casinni)? Have you monitored the system when it's running on IIS? Is the box your developing/running on a multi-core box?

JAG14,

I am transferring with the standard javascript call in the OnClick event of hyperlink.

jmeckley,

I am using VS 2005. No, I haven't monitored the system using IIS. Is there anything particular you suggest I monitor?
The box is having Quad CPU Q9550.

Thanks for your replies,
Sheila

how do you know the actions are processed in serial rather than parallel?

I see the windows open, and wait for the previous window to finish.

You should quantify this before going any further. profile the application to determine if they are processed in serial or parallel. right now there are too many variables, and just watching the browser doesn't provide any information. profiling the application while hosted on IIS, rather than casinni, will also provide more accurate results.

JetBrain's dotTrace and Ants Profiler are both solid tools for analyzing & quantifying how the system works.
