Tailing HTTP output to display in dialog
I have built an application which allows the user to upload a zip of csv files to insert into a database schema.
the files can be big. it can take some time to run, and there could be loads of integrity issues to report, duplicate fields, bad values etc etc..
while ti may be best to just shunt this all off to some back end process which sticks the output of everything into some log in a db which can then be viewed later (a solution I've seen), it would be nice to read the output as it dribbles out of my insertion program, even if the browser will only show it in chunks (I understand internet exploder for instance chunks stuff up in 2k blocks).and display it in a dialog. I couldnt work out where we stand with this. Is there some handy stuff in jQuery that wil do this, or do I have to read this lot and take my pick
