Hi all,

Am using multithreading for the first time in .NETweb application.

I have code like below.Iam creating 3 methods to invoke 3 methods
simultaneously.
In each method i will the assign the loop index to var which i display in
the web page.
But it behaves very strangely.Sometimes the methods invoked by the
thread(m1/m2/m3) is not called at all.
Some times it calls just m1 and m2. like this the results are very
inconsistent.

Please advice me on this. Am i doing anything wrong.

Thanks
VSK

They are being called. The problem is by the time they are done, the page
has already completed processing and sent out to the client. The easiest way
to do this is to do a t1./t2./t3.join which will cause the page to wait for
all processing to be done so you can see the results of the thread
execution.
