Re: clearing new pages

I put this at the top of long pages, $processing = "

    <span id='processing'>
    processing, please wait ...
    </span>

"; echo $processing; flush(); Then put this at the bottom, $hide = "

    <script language='javascript'>
    if (document.layers) {
        processing.visibility='hide'
    } else if (document.all) {
        document.all('processing').style.visibility='hidden'
    } else {
        document.getElementById('processing').style.display='none'
    }
    </script>

"; echo $hide; Works pretty good. - John On 5/26/2004 10:20 AM, Michael Young wrote:

Hi,

    a file called a.php prints "hello" to the browser then calls b.php which prints "goodbye" to the browser.

the output looks like this: hello goodbye how do I clear the screen so the end results looks like this: goodbye
