Message:

stop a servlet while it is running

Posted by Daisy on April 18, 2001 at 5:53 AM

I have made a servlet. If a remote user activates
the servlet from a web browser, then decides to click the Stop
button on the web browser before processing has finished, the
transfer is interrupted to the user's web browser, but the
servlet continues to run until it has finished.

Is there a way to pass the message that the transfer has
been interrupted by the user to the servlet and get it to stop
processing immediately?

Thanks for any info,

Daisy
