As good practice, IMHO, php scripts should ALWAYS contain proper HTML formatting (if you're running these scripts to create web pages :)). See what happens if you add <html> and <body> tags... you never know, right? Also, just another fun note... the biggest issue I've ever seen in *delayed* display of data is within a table... IE and Netscape will both display plain data as it is received from the server... BUT tables (and the data therein) will not display in Netscape until the ENTIRE table has been downloaded (as it does it's processing of table display at that point only)... so if you've got a page returning a lot of data, try breaking rows of data into their own tables, then the user won't have to wait five years for all the data to arrive before viewing at least some of it :) -- Andy Hoffman Web Developer Bristol-Myers Squibb email: andy.hoffman@bms.com
