Re: Loading progress bar

Hi,

You could redirect using javascript. For example:

echo '<script type="text/javascript">window.location =
\'done.php\'</script>';

An image would work. Javascript progress meters are available too:

AJAX upload progress meter in PHP:

Hope that's helpful.

loader progress bar. I did a plain expanding gif but the problem is
that it prevents me at the end from redirecting.

Do you have in mind any nice script that might do that? AJAX would be a
good solution. Or something that will pop up... I don't know what to
think. It is the first time I am doing that.
The progress depends on the loop progress ... so a simple counter and
count(array) would be enough variables to create something.

If you've done something similar you'll know what I am talking about.
Thanks
