nayanjyotionline Posted September 29, 2010 Share Posted September 29, 2010 Hi, I have a mail script to that will take a long time to process, let me call it form2.php Now I post from form1.php to form2.php. I like to run/execute the form2.php in the background so that the user will not wait for the time executing the form2.php. I have used exec and shell_exec but not success. I am using latest WAMP server in my local mechine. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joel24 Posted September 29, 2010 Share Posted September 29, 2010 what kind of data are you processing in the form? unless it's a large amount of data (movies, large files etc) there will be minimal waiting time. you can use ajax to post the form and then display a loading image and return a response when the server has finished executing the PHP script.

joel24 Posted September 29, 2010 Share Posted September 29, 2010 how are you sending these mails? have a look around at some of the mass mailing / bulk emailing classes. you can set up a cronjob to send the emails at a later time. there are plenty of mass-mailing articles & resources on the web, google is your friend.
