This may not be obvious from the previous posts.
You must flush all HTML up to and including the <body> tag (<head>, <meta>, etc.),
or the browser won't respond. This would have the effect of "blanking" the page
while waiting for the script to complete. This is in addition to the other tips posted.
Most users expect something immediate to happen when they click on a link. "Blanking" the
page is often times better for those not accustomed to keeping an eye on their browser's
progress bar.
