PHP executes the code in order. When the code makes a call to a function, that function will need to complete before the code that follows the call continues. <?php function longRunningFunction() { // The function will take a while. } // Start a loop do { // Call the long running function. longRunningFunction(); // The next line of code cannot run until the longRunningFunction() returns. } while($someBreakValueTest) // The code here cannot run until the do/while is complete. ?> -- Richard Quadling Twitter : EE : Zend @RQuadling : e-e.com/M_248814.html : bit.ly/9O8vFY -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
