This isn't really database related, but ok...
<?php
// Progress.php
class Progress {
public function start () {
echo file_get_contents ('progress.html');
flush ();
}
public function end ($url) {
$text = "<script type=\"text/javascript\">";
$text .= "window.location = '$url';";
$text .= "</script>";
echo $text;
flush ();
}
}
?>
<?php
// process.php - process the stuff
$progress = new Progress();
$progress->start();
// ... Do your processing here ...
$progress->end('nextpage.php');
?>
In the progress.html file, it would just be an html page that has an animated gif (and whatever else
you want on it). Hope this helps.
