Pausing Script

[gple]

Is there any way to pause inside a loop? If I want to pause for 1 second between each output, is that possible

[taith]

sleep(1);

sleep() pauses execution of a script. If you want to pause output to the browser, you need something like:

 

<?php
ob_start();
for ($i=1;$i<10;$i++) {
    echo $i. "<br/>";
    sleep(1); // pause 1 second
    ob_flush();
    flush();
}
?>
