I have IWP up and running. Pages look good on Mac and Windows and most work without a problem but I have some that if I even put a cursor in a field, IWP freezes. It matters not what browser or system I am on. One weird part of the url when I get this is "check status" Locally, the db runs without error but not in two of the pages which contain a portal and links/lookups to other tables. Any help on this would be terrific. TIA

FMP 11 Advanced on Snow Leopard and Win 7. Ports 591 and 8080 were used with identical results. The pages will come back after several minutes but that, of course, is not acceptable. :)

This sounds like a delay due to excessive processing or data transfer. (I agree that it's not acceptable though.) It sounds as though some kind of data download is happening in the background.

Do any fields have a pop-up or drop-down list? Does it have auto-complete enabled?

Does the portal have a sort? Even if only 5 related records are visible, the whole data set for the field for every related record needs to be pulled down to perform the sort and work out which 5 records to display.

[Robert Moran]

Yes, there are numerous popup ad drop down lists and auto complete is enable. Should these things be disabled. I also have multiple windows open on one page. I gather I have too much going on based on your terrific answer. Are there any workarounds. On all the other pages, as stated before, IWP works ok. Thanks for the great response

Best

I'd say the sorted portals are the problem.

I'll give it a shot. Thanks for the info. :)
