web page output "as we go"

Hi, all -- It's been a while. I've been busy and have missed the list. It's good to have a [legitimate] excuse to read again :-) I have a script which churns away and spits out the name of each file as it processes. The docs say that any print or echo statements get written immediately and thus exists output buffering for headers and sessions -- but -- but in the web browser instead of seeing content start to flow in (to give me an indicator of how things are going) the page simply remains blank until it suddenly shows me the completed list. Is there any way I can tell the web browser to start trickling the data onto the page? TIA & HAND :-D -- David T-G davidtg@justpickone.org http://justpickone.org/davidtg/ Shpx gur Pbzzhavpngvbaf Qrprapl Npg!
