RE: [PHP] Mailing List Programme

I've used the following line in some of my scripts, some of which run for 10 or 15 minutes. set_time_limit(0); The server won't time out, but it takes a while to get anything back to the browser. It's not ideal, because it takes some time before anything gets sent back to the browser, but it does the trick. Kind regards Chris Neale Somerfield Stores Ltd. -----Original Message----- From: Sheni R.

The problem now I am facing is, if the list is very long then I am getting an error message in the browser "Server Timed Out". How can I display a confirmation message and continue sending the emails from the server? That is, trigger a separate script (not related to browser) on the server which handles the emails and then return a success message. Can anybody help me to find out a logic or script on this.
