Does apache stop a script mid execution ?


Hi everybody,

I have a quick and probably dumb question, keep in mind I just
dumped my old love FastCGI + Perl for it's younger hotter friend PHP5.

If the user calls a time consuming script and then stops or refreshes
the browser before the script had time to finish will Apache kill the
script mid execution or will it let it finish ?

I ask this stupid question because this seems to be happening in one
of my sites.

If this is true, is there any way to tell apache to finish what it
was doing ?

Cheers,
GA
