Hi,
I have a script which slowly processes several thousand lines of text. I
want to give users a feeling for that the process is not dead. Thus, I am
using:
...
print "processing ";
print"
";
flush();
for($i=0;$i<count($total);$i++) {
print".
";
flush();
// do something time consuming
}
...
Works perfect in IE 5.5: It shows the word "processing" followed every 2
seconds (denpending on what I am doing) by a new period.
But, in Netscape nothing shows up until the entire process has finished.
When I push "stop" on the Netspace menu it shows what was transfered so far
and "Transfer interrupted!" But, I would rather have it the way it is in IE.
Any idea how to improve the code above?
Thanks!
