Request: Send a blank email to php-general+get-94395@lists.php.net to get a copy of this message
Hi people!! I'm trying to find a way to handle this but I don't come up with anything. I need to execute a query to a DB using PHP. The thing is that the query takes 0.5 hours to execute and I can't wait that time with the browser opened in that page. What I want to do is to execute a PHP code block in some sort of background way so I can execute the query and send the results via email. Any ideas to do this?? Thanks a lot. Richard.
