[RESOLVED] Send page but continue processing?

Does anybody know how (or if even possible) in asp.net, i can force it to send the html page to the client, but continue performing a large process in the background and later close (no further contact with the client needed after this point, and i do not want the client to sit and wait for it).

Will i have to make this a seperate program, or is this possible to do?

Create your large process as a seperate class, and start it in a new thread.

I wasn't sure whether this would work, but i tested it out and you're right, the other thread isnt terminated when the page is returned

Thanks :)
