I would like to be able to detect when my scripts timeout and send an
appropriate message to the browser. However it seems that even though
there is a way to detect a script execution timeout in PHP there is no
way to send something to the browser once a script has timed out.
The function register_shutdown_function() seems to be exactly what I
need. In conjunction with connection_status() I can find when a timeout
has occured and act on it.
However register_shutdown_function() will not allow one to send output
to the browser since it is called *after* all output has been sent.
Could someone implement a version of register_shutdown_function() that
would allow for output to be sent to the browser?
PS
I have already asked around and been told it cannot be done *but* If
there is already a way to do what I trying to achieve, please let me
know and sorry but the bogus request.
