note 54587 added to function.sleep

This may seem obvious, but I thought I would save someone from something that just confused me: you cannot use sleep() to sleep for fractions of a second. This: <?php sleep(0.25) ?> will not work as expected. The 0.25 is cast to an integer, so this is equivalent to sleep(0). To sleep for a quarter of a second, use: <?php usleep(250000) ?> ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.sleep.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+54587 Delete: added to the manual -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+54587&report=yes&reason=added+to+the+manual Delete: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+54587&report=yes&reason=bad+code Delete: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+54587&report=yes&reason=spam Delete: useless -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+54587&report=yes&reason=useless Delete: non-english -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+54587&report=yes&reason=non-english Delete: other reasons -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+54587&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+54587&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
