Hi,
I have a form that calls a .php script on submission. Since this script
takes a fairly long time to execute, I'd like to redirect the user to
another page while the script executes in the background.
What would be the best way to achieve this?
Using
<?php
header ("Location: <location>");
.....script code ....
?>
is of no avail as the redirection does not take place till the script
completes execution or the browser page expires,whichever is earlier.
