I beleive you can use output buffering to stop anything from being displayed until the very last moment. Or you can code your page with tables. I know IE wont' render a table until the last </table> (I beleive), so this could stop your html from showing.
Or if there is going to be a long pause, you could make a intermediate page that displays this will take minute. This page would have a meta refresh that keeps refreshing itself checking the status of your job. Once the job is complete on the next refresh it will notice the job is done and voila display the results.
