When is Response.Flush honoured?

[Shardul Kulkarni]

Hi,

I would like to know the pre-requisite conditions for Response.Flush to be
honoured. Can you override the default semantics of this in any way?

Thanks.

The only condition condition I can think of is to use the buffered mode...
What is the problem ?

Note in particular that it doesn't necessarily cause the browser to render
something. In particular if you flush an opening HTML tag without the
corresponding closing tag, it's likely the browser will not render this
part. You may have also to enclose stand alone text in span tag (don't
remember). Finally remember that ASP.NET constructs the control tree and
then renders it. Flush may not be called at the appropriate time.

Just guesses. Describe us the exact situation rather than being general...
