MrBillybob Posted August 9, 2007 Share Posted August 9, 2007 When ever a user logs in i want to run a script that will loop trough 1000 items and put them into a db(this part is done). The script that loops takes awhile so i don't want it to make the user wait for it to finish. I don't need to get anything from the script i just need to have it run. Is this possible?

MrBillybob Posted August 9, 2007 Author Share Posted August 9, 2007 i am getting a csv from a server and then updating records Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/64005-solved-running-a-script-in-the-back/#findComment-319046 Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmgmyr Posted August 9, 2007 Share Posted August 9, 2007 What do you need the csv for? Do you really need to update it that much? ...Why don't you just pull the information from the database when you need it instead of running this function all the time? It would certainly speed things up. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/64005-solved-running-a-script-in-the-back/#findComment-319051 Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrBillybob Posted August 9, 2007 Author Share Posted August 9, 2007 ...the server provides a csv of the most recent data...so i get the csv file and insert the new rows into the database..and there wont be alot of traffic so i thought this would be the best way Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/64005-solved-running-a-script-in-the-back/#findComment-319054 Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmgmyr Posted August 9, 2007 Share Posted August 9, 2007 why would you write the data to the file, then the same data to the database? Can you write out your whole procedure for us...I'm sure we can give you a better solution Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/64005-solved-running-a-script-in-the-back/#findComment-319057 Share on other sites More sharing options...
