FAQ

Deprecated?

I'm not sure it was appropriate to label this property "Deprecated", since it doesn't behave exactly the same as BufferOutput.

Unless I'm completely missing something, the only way to make Response.Flush actually send content to the browser immediately is to set:

Response.BufferOutput = False
Response.Buffer = True

Nothing else I tried worked, but this did.
