The problem is it is the same process. I want the window to be a different process.

Opening a new IE window in different process?
All,
Is it possible to open a new window of IE 7 in a different process? When I use window.open(... ), it does not create a new process.
I would like to open a new window so it is not tied to the old window so I can start a long process (new window) and it won't interfere with navigation on the old window.
Thx

Yes, it works with that but if I try to put a URL in within our internal web app, it doesn't change until the PDF is created. I am starting to wonder if this is some sort of limitation on Ajax

Actually, I looked at the page some more and noticed the menu system is using <a href'=""> all over the place. I tried putting a <a href="">click here</a> on my page and while the PDF was being created, I clicked on the text and the page would not change until the PDF was created. I could manually put the same URL in browser and submit it while the PDF was being created and it worked fine.

I wish I had a test page online but this is all internal work at the moment. I do notice that if I am creating a PDF on the server, I can enter an URL for another part of our system w/o using the menus and it works. If I try to navigate with our menus to the same page, it doesn't work.
I have a feeling something in our menuing system is funky and needs to be looked at. I can put the code up here if you want to look at it (I am fairly...Leave a comment:

Actually, I changed the callback function to a 'foo'-alert. I now see what is going on. If I start the request and it is processing in the background and I try to go to another website (ie www.google.com) , it lets me (and I assume the request to call the callback function is disregarded by the browser). BUT, if I try to navigate inside my webpage using the menu system someone else devised, it does not allow me to change pages.
Any...Leave a comment:

Yes, it is a very large PDF
I cannot email it because I would have the same problem. When I am in the processing of creating it (~ 1 min), I cannot navigate with the calling window to other pages. Is there a way to do that?
IE : I am on an asp page and a user clicks a button to create a PDF. I send that request to the server for prcoessing. This process can take upwards of 2 mins and I want the user to be able to...Leave a comment:

Ok, I put some ajax in my javascript code
...Code:http_request = new XMLHttpRequest(); sURL = "ReportHeading=" + frmCreditReport.ReportHeading.value; sURL += "&MeetingId=" + frmCreditReport.MeetingId.value; http_request.onreadystatechange = jon; http_request.open('POST', "popup_pdf.asp?" + sURL, true);Leave a comment:

Now that you tell me this, I think I might want to do it another way (tell me which ones are feasible)
1) User is on page1.asp and clicks a button to create a PDF. I use javascript to send an async call to the server to start creating the PDF (it is all vbscript with a bunch of stored procs). While the PDF is being created, I assume the user can navigate to page2.asp and do something else, correct? I was thinking that instead of...Leave a comment:

I am actually using ASPPDF in our current system.
It is pretty easy to use but you end up doing alot of trial and error when creating PDFs (ie making sure the spacing is correct)
If you have specific questions, let me know and I will try to answer them
Thx

Ok, let me get this straight.
If I incorporate Ajax on my child/popup to create the PDF, my user is going to be able to go to the parent window and navigate to another page while the child/popup is awaiting a response from the server?
Sorry if this is a total newbie question but I am new at this.
Thx

I have never used ajax before.
Is there a way to do with just javascript or am I going to have to get ajax?

Javascript popup window question
All,
I am using javascript (window.open()) to create a popup to do some processing. This popup is going to create a PDF which can take anywhere from 10 secs to 2 mins (alot of backend SQL calls) and I was hoping to use this popup to show the user that something is going on (animated gif) and give them the ability to use the parent window to do other things in our system (while the popup is creating the PDF on the server).

Ok, here is my code (very simple)
...Code:<%@ Language=VBScript %> <% Option Explicit %> <% Dim WSHShell, WshEnv, sTemp Set WSHShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell") Response.Write("Starts here<br/>") on error resume next %> <pre> <%=now()%> </pre> <%Leave a comment:

Ok, I am really confused now.
I have the following code (notice I am only calling "cscript" with no parameters. I would assume it would at least run, right?
When I log onto my server and go to /windows/system32, I find the cscript.exe file and I verify the settings are there for IUSR_.... and set to Read and Read & Execute.
What else could be missing?
This is what I see when...Leave a comment:

I took some of my code out and now I am getting the following error :
Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a0046'
Permission denied
/credit_reportin g/maintenance/business_subjec ts/jon.asp, line 11

Ok, I got it working. My admin guy gave read/execute permission to the cscript.exe file in the windows/system32 directory.
Now, when I try to execute the script from the server, it creates the file as expected. When I try to create the file via the ASP page, it completes but the file does not get created.
Thoughts?

Ok, I changed my code to this
and I get the following :Code:sTemp = "cscript " & server.MapPath("\credit_reporting\maintenance\business_subjects\jon_test.vbs") 'WSHShell.Run server.MapPath("\credit_reporting\maintenance\business_subjects\jon_test.vbs"), 1, true WSHShell.Run sTemp

If you can give me some code you have working for WScript, I can try copying it into my pages to see if it works for me.
Thx

Yes, I tried putting one line in the vbs page and it still hung (Dim Mail)
These are the two pages I have now :
jon.asp
