[thelist] ASP - Response.Write

I have a few ASP scripts that do a lot of processing between output lines..
I don't use the buffer or the flush.  The html stuff clearly does NOT get
buffered and spit out all at once.  It'll throw up a line or two, wait a few
seconds while it's thinking, then the next line, etc...

Are you sure about that? I'm quite certain that the page is only sent in
chunks when Response.Buffer=true (not "true") and Response.Flush. That's
the reason for using Response.Flush -- to give the client part of the
page while the rest of the script is running.

Maybe I'm wrong.
