RE: [PHP] Tables Loading Slow
Good day, As it has been said, this is a function of the browser. You can get around this by not using a large table to render your data. You could use one table per row, with all columns formatted with the same width. You could also try to use SPAN containers to store the data, but in my experience only IE supports the width style attribute of these. You will also have to ensure that PHP is flushing the output as it displays it. And, you could also optimize your data structure so that the results are returned quicker. =) Darren Gamble Planner, Regional Services Shaw Cablesystems GP 630 - 3rd Avenue SW Calgary, Alberta, Canada T2P 4L4 (403) 781-4948 -Original Message- From: Bryan Gintz [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, January 30, 2002 7:39 AM To: PHP List Subject: [PHP] Tables Loading Slow Hi.

Re: [PHP] Tables Loading Slow
from the PHP manual [flush()] ...Even the browser may buffer its input before displaying it. Netscape, for example, buffers text until it receives an end-of-line or the beginning of a tag, and it won't render tables until the /table tag of the outermost table is seen... even if you're flushing the buffer after rows are processed, you probably wont get any increase in load time because of this rendering issue... it's just a drawback of using tables in html, regardless of how they are generated... -- Adam Leckron [[ [EMAIL PROTECTED] ]] Tony Bibbs [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message 1012401977.6913.10.camel@tbibbs">news:1012401977.6913.10.camel@tbibbs...

Re: [PHP] Tables Loading Slow
Maybe this is a solution for you: instead of: table trtd1/tdtddata 1/td/tr trtd2/tdtddata 2/td/tr trtd3/tdtddata 3/td/tr trtd4/tdtddata 4/td/tr /table you can do this: table trtd1/tdtddata 1/td/tr /tablebr table trtd2/tdtddata 2/td/tr /tablebr table trtd3/tdtddata 3/td/tr /tablebr table trtd4/tdtddata 4/td/tr /tablebr If you can't beat them, join them!

Re: [PHP] Tables Loading Slow
Either have 1 table per row, which means each row will display as it loads, rather than waiting for the other 30 or so. Alternatively, you could break it into chunks of 10, or 5 or whatever. I'm using both these methods on a few sites, with no problems.
