For windows clearing the screen using "system('cls');" does not work (at least
for me)...
Although this is not pretty it works... Simply send 24 newlines after the output (for one line of
output, 23 for two, etc
Here is a sample function and usage:
<?php
function CLS($lines){ // $lines = number of lines of output to keep
for($i=24;$i>=$lines;$i--) @$return.="\n";
return $return;
}
fwrite(STDOUT,"Still Processing: Total Time ".$i." Minutes so far..." . CLS(1));
?>
Hope This Helps,
