I'm trying to create the effect of real-time command output echo...

<%
Response.Buffer = False
%>

<html>
<head>
<title>ASP StdOut R/W Test</title>
<body>

<%
strComputer = Request.QueryString("host")

Set WshShell = Server.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
Set WshShellExec = WshShell.Exec("tracert " & strComputer)

strResults = WshShellExec.StdOut.ReadAll
strArray = Split(strResults, Chr(13) & Chr(10))

For Each x In strArray
Response.Write (x & "<br>")
Next
%>

</body>
</html>

My for loop here is superfluous as it isn't engaged until all StdOut has already been buffered. In a web context, this results in the page not loading at all until the WshShell.Exec completes (several seconds or more for a trace route)...the goal being to consecutively Response.Write each line after the page loads.

I'm just curious if there's a way to read & write each line of StdOut as it "occurs"...like for each StdOut.ReadLine in WshShellExec do Response.Write(StdOut.ReadLine). :)

Thanks...GLM
