I have a reporting tool that can take up to 10 minutes to process and am looking for a way to have DNN tell the user what's going on and then when the job is finsihed show the jobs output.
Can anyone help? Are there already some examples out there?
Take a look at the Who's Online module: in a sense it monitors a queue of users.
Maybe pop up a separate window (not based on default.aspx) that monitors the user's reporting queue. Then set the refresh for the window to every x seconds.
If you are not in a shared host situation, you could create a service that handles reporting and then raises events that dnn could catch.
