RE: [PHP] aborting script

Well, you know, I was thinking about this after I sent it and I don't think it would work anyway, because it just emulates the function of clicking the mouse down again. I was thinking that if you where to wrote some code to basically say: <Script Language"php"> function startOver(); if(document.onmousedown){ "you'd have to figure out what needs to go in here, but something like a "start over function"; } </Script> <Script Language="JavaScript"> function onClick('startOver') </Script> I know the syntax on this is WAYYYYY off, but thought maybe with some research you could get the jist of what it was that I was trying to get the script to do. Again I don't think it's going to do anything other than emulate what you don't want and act as if the client is clicking on the link again and again, impatiently. I think, you should go with what the other suggestion. About having it load another page while PHP is parsing the code. Hope this helps.
