response.redire ct & server.transfer very slow

[wizard04]

On my WinXP machine, with both IE6 and Firefox 1.0, response.redire ct
and server.transfer take about a minute. But on my WinNT machine with
IE5.5, it works instantly. What's going on?

I don't know if it would be a factor, but Firefox is at version 1.5.0.1

server.transfer is a serverside action, this cannot introduce any
clientside browser depending problem.

The trick Server.transfer performs, is 'passing' the session context and
casting it back. So, what are you storing in the session?

I'm just trying to redirect the page when I cancel a form. Here's the
code, basically:

<%
addMode = request.queryst ring("mode")
if addMode = "doadd" then
if request.form("s ubmit1") = "Cancel" then
response.clear( )
server.redirect ("admin_members .asp")
end if
...
end if
%>

<form action="admin_m embers_add.asp? mode=doadd" method="post"
id="form1" name="form1">
<input type="text" ...>
...
<input type="submit" value="Add Member" id="submit1"
name="submit1">
<input type="submit" value="Cancel" id="submit1" name="submit1">
</form>

server.redirect ???

I know only:

response.redire ct

[which sends a header to the browser
advising the browser to load another page,
possibly on another domain altogether]

and

server.transfer

[continueing the asp processing of the file
on another file on the server,
regardless of even the browser being in existence]

Sorry - I meant server.transfer (though I've tried response.redire ct
too)

I can only think of bad reasons to use this. If a decision may result in
redirection, then make that decision before putting anything in the buffer.

That makes sense; I've fixed that. However, this does not solve my
problem.
