[Zope] Time-consuming External method blocks Zope execution

[shawn grant]

I have been unable to get this method to work.  I went to the Netscape page and tried their example.  It didn't work with Netscape 4.75 on windows or linux (as well as IE and mozilla).  Is this still a supported mimetype?  Has anyone gotten this to work in or outside of zope?
