With max_execution_time directive in PHP.ini? I suppose I must have changed
that at some point too. I've tried using flush() before but without much
luck, and from what I've read in the manual I think it might be because I'm
running my setup on a Windows machine with IE6. A problem with client-side
buffering...

I've used the following line in some of my scripts, some of which run
for 10
or 15 minutes.
set_time_limit(0);

The server won't time out, but it takes a while to get anything back to
the
browser. It's not ideal, because it takes some time before anything gets
sent back to the browser, but it does the trick.

Your server timeout would have to be ramped up too. And you can get
output to the browser...let's say you are looping

while($foo is good){
   get data
   process date
   flush(information)
}

http://www.php.net/flush sends info to browser

Anyone sense a theme here for me this morning?!?
