displaying

[Anon]

hi all,

i created a .php page which uses MySQL as its database.

the page is displayed at one go (when it fetches all the dynamic contents from the database).

is it possible to display the contents of the page while processing.

thanks in advance.

Hi Vishwa,

Your PHP code should "generate" a web page on the fly, so it is down to the browser on whether or not it renders the code. Unless you're attempting a huge function (like printing out all combinations of RGB :-)), the user is normally waiting for the browser/bandwidth, as most browsers will display content as it is loaded, rather than waiting to load the entire document.

Regards,

David

Hiya

As far as I'm aware the page isn't sent to the browser until the php script has finished running so the answer is gonna be no.
