cutoff returns over a network?

viveleroi0

I have a PHP 5.0.3, MySQL 4.1.8, apache 2.0.52 server running on windows XP pro on a LAN (wireless or wired has no impact), and sometimes when I access a php page that gets more than twenty rows from MySQL in a query result, the browser just STOPS rendering the page half way through. I have not found it to limit it self to certain byte sizes - sometimes is cuts off a 7KB page while showing an 11kb page just fine.

This does not happen when I view the same page from the http://localhost url on the same computer... only when I'm accessing http://192.168.0.3 from another LAN comp.

Web browser doesn't matter. Any ideas?

poor code making your scripts timeout?

If you are displaying the data in a table and do not end the tr, td or table tags properly then the page can appear not to load in the browser, but it is actually in the source. Check the source code, even better, cut and paste the source code into DreamWeaver and it will identify poor HTML. The only other thing I can think of is setting the time limit:

oh, one more thing, make sure that you don't have for or while loops running for ages, put a print statement in to see how many times they run.

I've been programming for years so I'm sure that my HTML is fine, and my loops do not end. Remember, this code works just fine when on the localhost.

It also works fine when uploaded to a Linux server with static IP... it only happens when accessed over a windows LAN in my home. There's not nearly enough data or looping to even come close to the default timeout.

Sometimes it works through - sometimes if I hold shift + click reload I can get the page to come up fine.

Firefox 1.0.1 (and previous versions) show half of the page... IE 6 shows the "page cannot be displayed" error page.

I don't get it.
