Sleep() And Browser Load.
is there a way to get around the browser continually acting like they are loading when using sleep()? It says the page is still loading but it really isn't because we are causing a delay for some data on purpose with php.
So it is for an intentional reason that we cause it. Many of us like using sleep(). Anyway to do it without the browsers showing the page is still loading? There must be a way, so many programmers for intense programming use sleep(), I can't imagine they have to deal with the browsers loading prompts whenever they do.

Can PHP Force A PDF *NOT* To Load Into A Browser?
I'm wondering if there is any way to use PHP to force a PDF not to load into a browser window. Currently we have a link to a PDF on a clients website and they want it to be downloaded via the 'Save Target As' menu. They do not want it loading into a browser.

Header Function To Load The Page It Is Directing To In A Clean Browser
Is it possible using the header function to load the page it is directing to in a clean browser. I have a member site which has an area using five frames, when there session expires they are redirected to the login screen, at the moment it just loads in the frame which calls it. Is there a way to just force the closure of the frames?

PHP Sleep()
I've been sitting for quite a while now, reading the sleep() manual and tried to turn the code upside down and inside out but nothing helps... I want the current page to wait a few seconds before it is directed to another ( after a successfull registration ). So i thought the best way to do that is to use sleep(). However, this does work to a certain point ... the current page waits for 5 seconds, but the text I want to show the user in the meantime doesn't show? Why? Without the sleep() and the header() it shows without any problem. Code:

Sleep()
I tried to make a script which would print a line of text at 1 line per second or whatever time i put. So i went ahead and tried this. PHP Code: echo "Passwords match."; sleep(1); echo "Passwords match."; sleep(1); echo "Passwords match."; sleep(1); echo "Passwords match."; This is a example and the text in echo has no meaning. However the sleep waits and waits for all the other sleeps to finish and then prints out all text at once.

PHP Messaging And Sleep
I would like to get my php script to send a message to a user for example to notify that a DB update or insert has been successful or not. After that the script will be redirected to the home page. how can this be done ? I have tried using sleep(5) to delay the script but that does not work the way that I want it to since it simply delays the execution of the ENTIRE script RATHER than a part of it !!

Sleep() In The Background
how much the sleep() which is set to no limit can consume the system resource. Could it cause to hang the server? I tried the following and couldnot see the server got busy. Although the browser seemed to be so, if I access to a different page, it responded very quick as usual. It's not a big deal, is it? sleep.php PHP Code: <?php set_time_limit(0); sleep(0); ?> fork_sleep.php PHP Code: <?php $str = "php -f sleep.php"; exec("$str > /dev/null &"); ?>

Would I Use Sleep To Delay
I am making a site for a friend, but with his PHP it always renders too quick and I would like it to wait a bit for the rest of the page to load, otherwise its a bunch of annoying gaps and whacked alignment as the CSS and images load and it all just looks annoying as it loads. And it takes away from the order of of information outputted as it goes through the PHP when your focused on the tripped out layout.

Sleep Function
I'm playing about with delaying results of a PHP program. I want to print some results then wait for a few seconds and print some more. I have found the php sleep function however have a small problem. <?php echo ("The time in 3 seconds from page loading: "); sleep(3); echo date('h:i:s') . " "; ?> The above script is meant to print the top line, wait 3 seconds and print the bottom line. Infact, it starts, waits 3 seconds and prints all at once. Now from my understand from php.net it should not sleep untill it hits the sleep command in there.

Session Timeout, Use Of Sleep Ect...
I have a custom script that uses sessions to track UID's. The only problem I have with the script is that the session times out in 1440 (min?) which I believe is 24 min. I was thinking that I could use php's sleep to hold off from doing a refresh until minute 20. Unfortunately, I have also read that using sleep can leave a server open to a DoS attack. I do not have access to the php.ini file to be able to change the timeout variable for the session. What is the best way to keep a session open without changing the .ini variable. Is sleep a good way do go about it, and if so, are there significant security risks in using sleep()?

Need To Flush Before Sleep But I'm Blank.
I'm new to php and am converting a bunch of asp pages to php. Current problem : I am using a Submit button on a form to POST ( send the database variables ) to a php page that will send a personalised e-mail to each client. On the php page, I am looping through a database, compiling a message ( html format ), and mailing the message to my client. After the mail has been sent, I need to wait for 4 seconds before continuing with the next database record. I am using this code after the mail has been sent : echo "Mail Sent to : " . $row['CliName']; ob_flush(); flush(); sleep(4); Problem is, that nothing appears after I click on the Submit button on the first page's form ( the first page just remains on the screen ). Once the database has been looped, the entire (correct) output appears on my screen - but I need to see some sort of progress as it works it's way through the database.

Staggering Execution With Sleep()
For my site, currently in development, I will be hosting some latest RSS picks from friend websites. To start with there will only be a couple, but eventually I hope to be sourcing from up to 50 partner blogs. Obviously, i dont want to make a request on every page load, so I would instead cache data from the past half hour/hour. I will be using CRON to schedule an update every so often, but having a single script making 50 requests one after the other then processing and storing the data may be taxing, especially if the outside server is slow. I thought about using sleep() to leave gaps between each request so that a sudden hogging of resources doesnt happen every hour. What are your views on this method? Is it feasable (and possibly even a good idea), or should I just get it all to execute in one go?

Long Sleep() And Time-out's
The script I'm writing needs to wait a random amount of time (1-300s) between each iteration of a loop, eg. while(condition) { do something //wait between 1s and 5 minutes sleep(rand(1,300)); } Problem is, a browser times out if it doesn't get an answer within about 30 seconds. Is the idea of having a PHP script sleep for a longer amount of time incompatible with web applications? Any work-around?

Require_once And Fatal Errors... Automatic Sleep And Try Again Anyone?
I have a PHP page which loads OK 80% of the time. However the rest of the time I get the following error: Fatal error: Failed opening required 'DB.php' This really bugs me, especially since the only reason this is happeneing seems to be due to server load. I would like to add code so that instead of displaying the given error, the PHP code makes the HTTP response thread simply sleep a little bit (say 4 seconds), and then retry, and repeat until the file can be opened. It seems strange to me that server load would prevent the file from being opened. Anyhow, any ideas on how I can improve the situation?

100% CPU Load : How To Investigate?
Someone I know is running some Web 2.0-type web site that lives on a shared host, and is experiencing 100% CPU load after a few hours. At this point, his provider couldn't tell if it's due to a DoS attack, or a bug in his application. 1. For the DoS thing, I assume looking at the log files should be enough to tell if it's the problem is due to a suspicious rise in the number of connections at some point. 2. As for bugs, are there tools available for PHP that can monitor an application and reveal bugs that could explain this CPU load?

Getting Images To Load

I am hotlinking through photobucket just like in the past. Does that make a difference? Same thing when making a block. All the other HTML works but I can't load images. On 'Topics' icons I have to change the files from jpg to gif in the directory to get them to work. Is there something I am doing wrong or does it sound like I have a bad script somewhere?

PHP Load Process
I've tried searching around for information on how PHP parses and renders itself. Basically, I'm writing a bunch of scripts that rely on a core file. The core itself is quite large (around 20k), but the scripts that reference it don't often utilise the entire contents of the core. Inside the core are functions that are never called *inside* the core, and a bunch of constants and globals that I call from the referencing scripts. So I guess in a nutshell, I want to know if when I call require, does PHP read the *entire* file? Or does it only read the bits it needs? I realise that last sentence makes me sound like I have trouble putting legos together, but I would just like to know how PHP goes about it duty.
