Web Service slow. Need to set time limit

Recommended Posts

Hi

 

I have a page with a temp and weather conditions box on it.  The data it contains is the returned data using a free webservice.

 

When all is well....it is great.  However I have noticed that this simple SOAP request (NuSoap Lib) and the resulting return, can, increase page download time to beyond ridiculous.

 

I need to know if there is a way using this library to set a response time.  This would enable me cancel the request if its too slow and fill the bax with an alternative.

 

either that or....

 

How would I go about displaying the page anyway and have a loading image until the data arrives (AJAX sort of thing i'd imagine)

 

Thanks

 

Will
