Hi to all...

i have a web page that displays records from the database...
I added <% Server.ScriptTimeout = 2000 %> to my page...

but still after a while the page "The page cannot be displayed"...

I know it’s working because when I change my script to display least on screen it works…

Do you know if there something else to add or I need to change because it looks like it’s not reading the timeout…

Thx Rino

Don't display so many records.

Learn to use "recordset paging". Display only 10 to 20 records per page.

Google for "asp recordset paging". Tons of examples out there. Some of them are even good ones.

the reason why is that once displayed the user exports the data to excel...
so they are not going to view it in web page...
is there a way to just export it to excel instead of display it on screen then???

Thx Rino

Yeah, but it's about 20 or 30 times as much work and easy to mess up.

Okay, just bump up the DB connection timeout and the Script timeout. A bit ugly, but if it's not done TOO often it will be okay.
