I use IE, have a large inventory, and my script won't completely run. Why is this?

Responses from the FillZ server when running a large script may be far apart.

By design, Internet Explorer imposes a time-out limit for the server to return data. The time-out limit is five minutes for versions 4.0 and 4.01 and is 60 minutes for versions 5.x and 6. Also, the time-out limit is 30 seconds for Windows Internet Explorer 7. As a result, Internet Explorer does not wait endlessly for the server to come back with data when the server has a problem.

To extend this time-out period in Internet Explorer 4.01 Service Pack 1 or later, follow these steps: 

 1. Add a ReceiveTimeout DWORD value with a data value of (<number of seconds>)*1000 in the following registry key:
          HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings
                 For example, if you want the timeout duration to be 8 minutes, set the ReceiveTimeout data value to 480000.
                 (<480>*1000)
 2. Restart your computer.
  • Note: This setting does not work on versions of Internet Explorer that are before Internet Explorer 4.0 SP1.
