Busy Agent

[alexfowler]

Hello,

Im developing a e-commerce with webspeed and in the first page the user will search for products.

The problem is, we have a lot of products and when the user search for all the products, take a long time to respond.

The user obviouslly can be bored and close the web browser or click in another link of page. When this happens, the agent remain processing the first request and stay busy till the end of first request ( i discovered that with agent loggin 4gl trace).

Does somebody have a way to kill the first request when the user close the browser or click in another link of the page ?

We are experienced a lot of problems because of this ...

Do not use webspeed to make long requests, instead batch the information to the webserver in smaller parts (say 50 products per request) and use previous next last first to let the user navigate in the results.
On top of that , make sure you have enough search criteria the user can enter to let him find the right product fast.

regards,

Casper.
