Hello,
I'm trying to find a way to keep my browser connection alive to the web server and database. I have a site that allows users to select data and add it to their carts and they can have their data generated in many different data types. For small jobs under 5 minutes everything seems fine but as soon as there is large data sets (50K rows by 12K columns) I get a session time out error on the browser. I wanted to create a function to keep checking that the process is running or just a way to let the browser know that the connection is still alive. I was thinking of using ajax to make the checks but I'm not sure if that is the best way to go about it or if I could do it using javascript. I need this solution to work across all browsers if possible.
Thank you for any help pointing me in the right direction.
