I have a php script which takes maybe 15-20 seconds to run, however until it completes a blank web page is displayed to the user. Is there a way/method which would enable me to give some feedback to the user while the script is running so the blank page is not displayed? Best, Chris

The first to display a page, like so: http://xn--ovg.com/a/wait.php And then have that script run your second script like so: ob_clean(); include('second.php'); exit(0); hth's tedd -- ------- http://sperling.com http://ancientstones.com http://earthstones.com
