I have a CGI script that downloads data from MySQL and provides a
hyperlink to download the zipped file.
The problem arises when the data download takes too long, and the script
times out. Is there a way to have the download part of the script split
off into the background, show the link, and quit? So that I can say,
"When the data is ready, it will be available at the following URL:"?
Is this what fork() is for, and if so, how do I use it?
Thanks.
Pete
