A sticky problem with browser synchronizing or whatever is the correct

[khovorka]

Hello,

I have a PHP script and does an extensive loop of moving information as XML
from someones server to a directory on the machine hosting my website.
The progress bar in the browser moves along nicely but once it completes
my script is still functioning for quite a while and the code after the loop
never seems to get executed. If I set the amount of information to be transmitted
to a lesser amount overall then the php script finishes. I have no Idea what
the real issue is here. The script in general does its job correctly there is something with the posting and retrieving the xml I guess but don't know what
to give for better details. The progress bar can finish the script could still be
looping for 10 or more minutes and then after the looping completes I use
a <META HTTP-EQUIV="Refresh" Content="0; URL=?????.php"> to refresh the browser page, but, this never gets executed in the case mentioned.

Help!

Thanks,

Kim H.

Sounds like either your script or your http connection are timing out. I'm not sure if this needs to be fixed in apache, php, or the browser.
