I know popup windows are a client-side issue, but I can't figure how to create and close a popup window from the server side only on condition, otherwise display normal browser page. What I want is to accept a form, check the input, if there are errors return them to the browser, if there aren't errors then popup a modal window and start processing (a possibly long process) while displaying results in the popup window, then automatically close the popup after processing is complete and redirect to normal browser page with the final results. I want to use the popup to (a) feedback ongoing progress to the user, and (b) keep the browser side alive because the process could take several minutes. Googling for +php +popup is getting me nowhere, all the results are for javascript. I know how to create a link or button that when clicked will create a popup that will display the results of a php script, but I need to do it the other way round. Can anyone please suggest some pointers on how to generate a conditional popup from the server, and then get the server to close it when done.
