[Zope] RESPONSE.write - Still not working

[Jonathan Hobbs]

Thanks to those who responded with some ideas regarding my RESPONSE.write
problem - but it's still not working!

Based on the responses I now have a dtml method containing (note: I have
tried it with and without the Transfer-Encoding header):


<dtml-call "RESPONSE.setHeader('Transfer-Encoding', 'chunked')">
<dtml-call "RESPONSE.setHeader('Content-Type', 'text/plain')">
<dtml-call "RESPONSE.write('Starting\n')">
<dtml-call "RESPONSE.flush()">

<dtml-call "wait(5)">

<dtml-call "RESPONSE.write('Done\n')">
<dtml-call "RESPONSE.flush()">



The 'wait' routine is still a simple external method:

import time
def wait(self, secs):
        time.sleep(secs)
        return


What I expected to see was the word 'Started' displayed in my browser,
followed by a 5 second delay, and then see the word 'Done' displayed.

What I get is a 5 second delay and then both 'Started' and 'Done" appear at
the same time.

FYI: I am running zope 2.6.1, python 2.1.3, RedHat linux 2.4.20, Apache
1.3.26

Any other ideas would be great! Thanks again,


Jonathan
