Output text status on a long class

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi all

I have a class that takes a while to run and am wanting to push some output
to the browser while it's doing its stuff.  Is that possible?

Here's what I'd like:

Connecting to server... Done!
Retrieving categories... Done!
...

All I can get it to do is output all of the text at the end of the script

A voice in my head says that outputting all of the text at the end of the
script is the only way to do it.  Then another voice says but there must be
a way! :)

I did try a quick test of buffering the text then explicitly flushing the
buffer but it didn't seem to work

I know this seems pointless but I'm anticipating that the users will be
confused (which would be a surprise </sarcasm>) and attempt to abort/bugger
off somewhere else

Thanks in advance!

Dan
