[Asynchronous script]

this is another method...which launches a new instance of the PHP interpreter as a backgounrd process..

exec ("/usr/bin/php path/to/script.php >/dev/null &");

 

[Asynchronous script]

you could launch a background process

function launchBackgroundProcess($call) {
     // Windows
    if(is_windows()){
        pclose(popen(’start /b ‘.$call.”, ‘r’));
    }
     // Some sort of UNIX
    else {
        pclose(popen($call.‘ /dev/null &’, ‘r’));
    }
    return true;
}

function is_windows(){
    if(PHP_OS == ‘WINNT’ || PHP_OS == ‘WIN32′){
        return true;
    }
    return false;
}

 

[session expiration]

yes it comes with your php5 download..it is normally found in this path.../etc/php5/php.ini

[Asynchronous script]

but what does the "heavy code" do?

[session expiration]

or you can use

ini_set("session.gc_maxlifetime", "18000"); 

 

which will increase the max lifetime of a session to whatever time you set. However I believe that this script must be placed in every file that you wish to increase the expiration time on

 

[session expiration]

you can set the global value for session cleanup higher than the default 24 minutes in your php.ini file.

[Asynchronous script]

can I ask what the purpose of the script running in the background is?

[how can I write this if sentence]

$query = mysql_query("select * from table_name where image_id1 !=''");
while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($query))  {
