How to show real time counter in asp.net

Question

I want to process some records one by one , Need to show record number on .aspx page that currently we are processing nth record.
Setting value of nth record in a label does not work as it will be reflecting only after response come back from server (it does not get refreshed for every record - looks like freezing )

solution to the freeze problem: use a new thread to calculate seconds — Emily, Mar 21 '17 at 09:19

You can use different techniques:

Do server pulling via AJAX request by in some period. Good answered question on this topic - Server polling with JavaScript
Use SignalR to send changes back to client when there was changes on server. You can read about it more here: How SignalR works internally?

Choose one that is applicable in your case

What about Angular? – Rahul Mar 21 '17 at 09:35
@Rahul With `Angular` you would implement server pooling. But it does not really matter how would you call `setInterval()` to call server for updates – klashar Mar 21 '17 at 09:37
