time out

[Anon]

I have set up an ezine which is sent out to 700 subscribers which are stored in a database.

The script I use timed out, so only a few hundred subscribers received the e-zine.

How can I extend the time out period?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Best,

Herman

<?php

// get list of articles
$articles = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM ictoday")
 or die("Error: ".mysql_error());

// compose message
$headlines = "";
$msg = "";
while ($arty = mysql_fetch_array($articles)) {
    $headlines .= " - " . $arty["headline"] . "\n";
    $msg .= "======================\n".$arty["headline"] . "\n======================\n"
        . $arty["body"]."\n\n" . $arty["source"] . ", " . $arty["date"] . "\n" . $arty["hyperlink"]. "\n\n";
}

// get addressees
$subscribers = mysql_query(
    "SELECT emailaddress FROM subscribers"
) or die("Error: ".mysql_error());

// set up...
$date = date("F d, Y");
$intro = "Welcome to ICT Weekly of " . $date . "\n\n" . "This week's headlines are:\n\n";

$headers =
     "From: [e-mail]\n"
    ."Reply-To: [e-mail]";
$subj = "Infonomics ICT Weekly of $date";
$full = $headlines . "\n\n" . $msg;

// ...and send
while ($addr = mysql_fetch_array($subscribers)) {
    mail(
        $addr["emailaddress"],
        $subj,
        $full,
        $headers
    );
}

echo("<p class=\"text\"><b>The news was distributed to all its subscribers!</b>");

?>
