Re: [PHP] Script timeout?

[Ben Ramsey]

Ah... I was trying to lookup the word "timeout," which was giving me 
nothing.  Thanks!  Also, shouldn't I be receiving an error message if 
the script is, in fact, timing out?  I have checked "display_errors" and 
it is turned on.

Hello Ben,

I'm trying to run a query against a database with a PHP script that 
cycles through each record (about 4,000+) and sends and e-mail to them 
if they have an e-mail address present.  The problem is that everytime I 
do this, it processes about 430 records and stops.  There is no error 
message generated.  Could this be due to a script timeout?  If so, how 
do I raise the timeout value?


Look up set_time_limit in the PHP manual. Also, consider retrieving all the records first 
with a single db query, storing all e-mails in an array, and then sending out the e-mails 
in a separate operation. Why query your db 4000+ times when you can query it only  
once?

Good luck,

Erik
