hi guys i have a little problem with flushing the buffer output, in this loop it should be downloading a file and changing the progress of a progress bar, although it waits until the shell_exec of all the files are done and then flushes the buffer which will start @ 95% , so it wont start until shell_exec is finished , is this a bug ?

php can't multitask, so it's not a bug what you can try: page1: (start process) put an ignore_user_abort on it put a header location on it to page2 start the command and let it write to a file where it is page 2 : read the file and display a processbar (with javascript or meta refresh) when done goto page3 page3: continue

foreach ($filename as $file){

     shell_exec("curl -O ".$url.$file);
     //shell_exec("wget ".$url.$file);
     //echo $file;

$bar->progressbar_percentage($i,$filename,'NewWin','Percentage','Downloading '.$file);

     $i++;
