Check out these two functions: ignore_user_abort(): http://php.net/manual/en/function.connection-aborted.php connection_aborted(): http://php.net/manual/en/function.connection-aborted.php The latter of which can help with logging if you want to see when the user killed the connection. -- </Dan> Daniel P.
