How to stop this from happening....

Anon

Hi All,

I have a problem i dont know how to fix. Hopefully you guys/girls can help me with it.

I have an upload page that people can use to upload photos. Problem is, when you whack the upload button on the first page, it runs a php script which uploads the photo - but it seems to run down the script untill it gets to the point of the exec'ing and the user seees a blank page for a while untill the picutre is uploaded.

This has me somewhat baffled cause it never used to happen, and i cant see anything ive changed for it to do so.

Posted below is the script i am using

<head>
<STYLE>UNKNOWN {
TEXT-DECORATION: none
}
A:hover {
CURSOR: crosshair; COLOR: white; TEXT-DECORATION: none; COLOR: white; BACKGROUND-COLOR: #0080FF;}

</STYLE>

<title>Thankyou!</title>
</head>
<body bgcolor="#00003E" link="#FFFFFF" vlink="#FFFFFF" leftmargin="0">
<?
include "../inc/top.php";
?>

include "../inc/header.inc";
include "../inc/settings.inc";

if ($image_name != "") {

copy("$image", "temp/original/$image_name") or die ("Couldn't copy the file.");
exec("/usr/bin/convert -geometry 200 temp/original/$image_name temp/thumbs/$image_name", $error);
exec("/usr/bin/convert -quality 80 temp/original/$image_name temp/big/$image_name", $error);

} else {

die("You forgot to add a filename. Please click the back button and try again.");

}

$insert_data = "INSERT INTO temp (image_name, image, name, email, country, airfield, rego, remarks, airline, date, month, year) VALUES ('$image_name', 'processed/big/$image_name', '$name', '$email', '$country', '$airfield', '$rego', '$remarks', '$airline', '$date', '$month', '$year')";

mysql_query($insert_data) or die("Couldn't insert data.");

$msg = "uploaded!!\n\n";
$msg .= "Photographer:\t$name\n";
$msg .= "Sender E-Mail:\t$email\n";
$msg .= "Airline:\t$airline\n";
$msg .="Country:\t$country\n";
$msg .= "Registration:\t$rego\n";
$msg .= "Remarks:\t$remarks\n";

$recipient = "my@email.address";
$subject = "File $image_name Uploaded!!";
$mailheaders = "From: Web Site Name<> \n";
$mailheaders .= "Reply-To: $email\n\n";

mail($recipient, $subject, $msg, $mailheaders);

<font face="Arial" size="2" color="white">Thank you for uploading your photo to us. As soon
as we have time we will get round to processing it for you<br><br>Click <a href="">HERE</a>
to add another photo</font>

</td>
<td width=20%>
</td>
</tr>
</table>

</div>

<?
include "../inc/footer.inc";
?>

</body>
