Hello Rock,

Yes it works OK. No problem there.
But what puzzles me is why, when the </html> is met by the browser, it still continues to obey the other html commands.
As far as the browser is concerned the </html> seems to have no significance.

Does Apache feed out the file contents, and php generated html, bit by bit, or does it wait until it's finished all the processing before sending the whole thing?

Ultimately, what I'm after, is to be able to display an html page on the browser, and still let the server php continue processing a long job.
This would enable the user to, say, click a link to go away from the page, but still leave the php on that page processing.

As it stands, it seems that the html in the file only appears on the browser after all php processing has finished.

Ron.
