Timing out

[Anon]

I am not sure if the script is timing out.. if the ISP is rejecting something.. or if the PHP engine is going nuts but..

I am working on a page written in 99% PHP code. I can view the site locally, and never have a single problem.. however, when I view the site from a friends webserver, most of the time I will get about 90% of the HTML, and it is cut completely off.. regardless if its in a table, plain text, calling the database, or whatever.

I tried setting the browser timeout to a rediculously long interval..

set_time_limit(240);

But this has proved to have almost zero effect.

Is there anything else that I may have missed that would keep the PHP script from completing, or sending the full HTML output through to my browser?

He is using Apache on a Windows XP box for the server.. if that means anything.

And when he views his page locally, or from any computer in his vicinity, he is not getting this timout like I am.

Alternatively, when I host the site, and he views it, he is getting the same, strange effect.. but when I view the page from anywhere in my vicinty, I see the page in its entirety.

I am thinking its something to do with my ISP.. but perhaps its not..

Any help, or suggestions appreciated.

Could be a browser problem. If you have mismatched table tags, some browsers (ie, Netscape) will choke. Check to make sure all your tables are symmetrical.

Additionally, have you tried viewing the source? Is it all there? If not, it's possible that Apache is weirding out. The Apache team does NOT recommend running a production Apache server on a Windows platform - it's quite unstable and buggy.

Also, try turning on full PHP errors and warnings, and seeing if you get anything. If you don't, it's most likely Apache.
