A hackish and inelegant way to do it would be to use JavaScript to create a new front window upon unLoad of the page that calls the PHP script. While the PHP script executes in the back page, taking its time to do its thing, the front page (perhaps a small window or something with an animated GIF to simulate the "page loading" effect) sits in front. When the PHP page has finally loaded, a new JavaScript command to close the "page loading" window executes, or you could have it close automatically after a certain number of seconds.
