processing pop up..?

efficacious · August 25, 2008

Hello everyone,

I was just wondering if someone would be able to help me setup a "Processing..." pop up for my php script..

I have an automatic update script that checks users version info against our current version info and the decides which files the users need and zips just those files up inside a zip document.

The problem I've ran across is that the script execution takes alil long.. like (25sec) or so.

But our users are not that computer savvy and would be calling us thinking there is something wrong..

So I'd like to be able to have a "Proccessing.." pop up that does a stupid cheap animation or something.. just to show them .. we are working on it... lol

I've never done anything like this so plz do explain as if I knew nothing.

thanks,

eff

You could do an Ajax approach for this, which would simply things because you can't really gauge PHP execution time.

efficacious · August 25, 2008

could you explain kinda the process flow of this tho..

like how am I going to be able to know when the script is done how Do i get the popup to go before the script execution starts... ect...

thanks,

Well, first of all, can I see the script? Why does it take so long...?

efficacious · August 25, 2008

well it takes along time cuz its zipping files..

its a decent size script. 377lines(including display).

the files are decent size aswell the biggest one i think is around 50mb

Oh, okay. You could use Ajax to send the request off the PHP, and then redirect to the ZIP or have it send the download.

here is the script:

not familiar with ajax 8(

Ajax is pretty simple. Just look up some examples on the web for basic Ajax requests and you should get the idea from there. And you know, scripts that need to go through every version with big loops like that make me love make even more. xD

efficacious · August 25, 2008

make?

DarkWater · August 25, 2008

It's a UNIX utility that checks the last modified time of files and executes commands to recreate files based on some dependencies and stuff. You see it a lot when compiling programs.

efficacious · August 25, 2008

ah ic

Been wanting to do some stuff on linux/unix systems but havn't been able to for somtime now..

I run my own websites and stuff off my pc aswell as playing games on it.. 8P

Your hosting companies don't yell at you for hosting your sites on their connection? Surprising. Well, if you get a decent amount of traffic, it's surprising. If it's like, 30 hits a month, then w/e. >_< You should really get some experience with Linux if you can though. Such a great system.

efficacious · August 25, 2008

well they better not say anything to me...

I pay almost 100$ a month for just internet..

16MB \/ 3M /\

I can get 22MB download and 4MB or 5MB upload.

efficacious · August 25, 2008

You could do it in one page and one PHP script.
