Hi All :)
I have a problem with the following code (sorry if this seems like a bizarre
thing to do):
<?php
while(true)
{
mysql("UPDATE A RECORD");
echo "Some stuff";
flush();
}
?>
When the user closes their browser the associated httpd process doesn't die,
and the while loop continues to run. Obviously after a while the number of
httpd processes becomes large and ultimately causes the server to crash.
No suprises there you might say, however this has only been a problem since
I upgraded from PHP3 to PHP4. I'm running Apache 1.3.12 on RedHat 6.1. Any
ideas anyone?
Thanks in advance,
Chris
