Re: Stop process when user close window browser

Hi Thomas, Yes. I read the manual regarding the connection handling. However ,in my php program , the execution did not stop , because i have logger which log sql statement "INSERT" statement when inserted data to database is ok . When i close the browser , the sql execution still running, statement is logged. Any idea how to stop it ? Because it cause my web page to be slow. Thanks. Thomas Munz wrote:

By default, PHP will also stop execution when the browser is closed. See: http://de.php.net/manual/en/features.connection-handling.php on Friday 30 June 2006 09:06, weetat wrote:

Hi all, I am using PHP 4.3.2 and MYSQL database. I think this question has been asked many times, however not solutions. The problem is that I have a php script which connect to db and update data to db which took length of time to be completed. However sometimes user accidentally close the window browser or kill the window browser. The php which a server script language will not know that the window browser has been closed , so the program execution is keep running . This will choke the memory in the server and thus choke the web page. So ,are there ways to stop program from executing when user close the browser window. Thanks - weetat
