Output data as it is generated

[edwardp]

If i wanted to output a list (for easiness 1-10) is it possible through php to output this data one by one onto the screen for example the following loop

for($x=1;£$x<=10;$x++){
   echo $x."<br>";
   sleep(1);
}

is it possible to change it so after each second $x is outputted to the screen rather than all data ouputted??

does this make sense

You can try using output buffering but really, this depends on how the client (browser usually) operates.

See [man]ob_flush[/man].
