RE: [PHP] sleep() function question

Is output_buffering = On set in the php.ini file? If it is set to on, no content or headers are sent back to the browser until the whole page has been processed by PHP. Best Regards, Patrick Lynch.

But you can make it write your output as its generated... check out the function "flush" also after 20seconds of looking, I found "ob_implicit_flush" that may help as well..
