Then what? It brings our sites down later -- without warning? That's no way for us to have to deal with this possibility ...I am simply asking you to code the software so this will *never* happen -- bug or not. To do this we should have a timeout we can set, either in the prefs or as an optional parameter to the [exclusivelock] context -- to terminate an exclusivelock after a set period of time. ================================ Kenneth Grome, WebDNA Consultant 808-737-6499 http://webdna.net ================================############################################################# This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list
