Time dealy

[Nixon]

Hi all,

I have a problem. I want to make a php time delay (about 5 seconds) without stopping the script running like the sleep() command does. ANy ideas?

Thanks.

sleep(5)

yeah but the sleep command doesn't work. I have the following bit of script.

print "<script> window.open('www.site.com', 'exit_win') </script>";

// Some sort of sleep command which lets the window above open and then it waits 5 seconds. Sleep command stops the window opening.

print "<script> window.open('www.site2.com', 'exit_win') </script>

If you want to open a new window five seconds after page load, you need to develope this function with JavaScript, not with PHP.

Search info for setTimeout() javascript function.
