progress bar help

msimonds

any help on this would be appreciated

I have this code:

$record_count = 200;
$total_record_count = $total_record_count + $record_count;
echo $total_record_count." records processed.<br />";
echo "**************** ALL DONE ****************<br />";

which outputs the following:

200 records processed.
400 records processed.
600 records processed.
800 records processed.
1000 records processed.
1200 records processed.
1400 records processed.
1600 records processed.
1800 records processed.
1969 records processed.
**************** ALL DONE ****************

I am trying to implement a progress bar that I obtained from phpclasses.org and in the example script

$prb = new ProgressBar(30, 30);	// create new ProgressBar (width:300px,height:30px)
$prb->left = 50;	// position from top
$prb->top = 80;	// position from left

$prb->show();	// show the ProgressBar

// move the Bar
for($i=1; $i<=100; $i++) {
	$prb->moveStep($i);
	usleep(100000);
}

it uses the for() loop to show the progress in the bar and works perfectly

My question is, how can I make the for () use $total_record_count and show progress every 200 of records. How can I put total_records in the for loop instead of $i

Sorry if this sounds stupid and thanks in advance

Regards,
Mike

Mike, I cannot understand how the code above can iterate without some loop or external interrupt timer that is not published in your example.

Can you give some more details?

this:

$record_count = 200;
$total_record_count = $total_record_count + $record_count;
echo $total_record_count." records processed.<br />";
echo "**************** ALL DONE ****************<br />";

WILL NOT output this:

200 records processed.
400 records processed.
600 records processed.
800 records processed.
1000 records processed.
1200 records processed.
1400 records processed.
1600 records processed.
1800 records processed.
1969 records processed.
**************** ALL DONE ****************

it WILL output an error since you haven't declared $total_record_count prior to using it

we need to see all your code

Use a standard percentage calculation and loose any fractions.
