Re: [PHP-DB] Processing Page
I've seen a solution that looks fairly simple to implement. Basically popup a window. Popup window displays "Processing please wait" and an animated gif. when the page in to background is done loading it kills the popup. I think you'd use "onload" in the body tag. try http://javascript.faqts.com olinux --- Adam Royle <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I have seen an example using JavaScript where > javascript commands are flushed every so often (from > PHP) which indicates a status bar process.

Re: [PHP-DB] Processing Page
I have seen an example using JavaScript where javascript commands are flushed every so often (from PHP) which indicates a status bar process. It was used to monitor mailouts. The javascript commands were simply telling an image to increase it's width. Of course you have to have a system where you can gauge percentages of things done. Alternatively, you could simply use same method (without image), and after db stuff is done, output a javascript redirect. The above is probably confusing, but ask me if you need more explanation.

RE: [PHP-DB] Processing Page
Timeout.html will redirect to verify_process.php after 30 seconds On verify_process.php you could run another query which would check the status of a certain field in the db. If this field is set to xxx, then redirect back to timeout.html, else redirect to process_complete.php. I guess this would work if you could set the field being used as a point of a reference when the other process is running. ??? ---> Jonathan -Original Message- From: Aspire Something [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, February 27, 2003 2:56 PM To: php-db Subject: Re: [PHP-DB] Processing Page Thanks every one ...

RE: [PHP-DB] Processing Page
You could do this very easily using a HTML page with the correct META tags. I am working on a Domino Project right now that does just that. After a page is submitted, the user is directed to an html page which sits for about 45 seconds. This HTML page just says something like "Your information is being processed by the State of XXX, please hold" or something like it. Then the page is redirected to a result page.

RE: [PHP-DB] Processing Page
Check out http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.ob-flush.php the ob_flush command. You could put an animated gif like an hourglass with a please wait at the beginning of your html output, perform an ob_flush command to put that info out to the browser, then perform your sql. After the sql finishes, output more information, or redirect to another page that says it's done. CAVEAT: Some versions of Microsoft Internet Explorer will only start to display the page after they have received 256 bytes of output, so you may need to send extra whitespace before flushing to get those browsers to display the page.
