		    This command flushes the output buffer and stops the Tcl 
		    script from sending any more data to the client.
		    A normal Tcl script might use the
		    <span style="font-family:monospace"><span class="command"><strong>exit</strong></span></span> command, but that cannot be used in
		    Rivet without actually exiting the apache child
		    process!
		    <span style="font-family:monospace"><span class="command"><strong>abort_page</strong></span></span> triggers
		    the execution of an optional AbortScript that has to be
		    specified in the configuration. The value of the
		    argument  ?<span style="font-family:monospace; font-weight: bold;">abort code</span>? can be retrieved with the 
		    <span style="font-family:monospace"><span class="command"><strong>abort_code</strong></span></span> command during the
		    execution of <a class="link" href="directives.html" title="Apache Rivet 3.2 Configuration">AbortScript or 
		    AfterEveryScript</a>, 
		    allowing the script to take appropriate actions in order to deal
		    with the cause of the abort. 
		</p><p style="width:90%">
		    The argument -aborting causes abort_page
		    to return 1 when the current execution is the outcome of an abort condition.
		    In other words this query is meaningful in code specified as 
		    <a class="link" href="directives.html" title="Apache Rivet 3.2 Configuration">AfterEveryScript</a> to understand
		    if an abort condition took place beforehand.
