RE: [PHP-DEV] Register_Shutdown_Function happens before shutdown

//You must have some bad HTML design however if you can not see your page until after all that is done. Thanks for your insight. You are very wise. //PHP lives inside the connection and content delivery area of Apache. //Therefore, all code is parsed while the connection is open. I'm not talking about the code being parsed, I'm talking about it being executed. However, form your other comment, I am going to assume that you meant executed, and you are trying to tell me that code cannot execute after the connection is severed. This function must be a part of my imagination then: int ignore_user_abort ([int setting]) Also, it seems pretty useless that ShutDown functions can't output to the browser... if it is guaranteed to be hanging around anyway.
