I just put it into my script, and it doesn't seem to be working. I put
ob_end_clean(); at the top of the script, but here's the while loop I have:
while($db->next_record()):
echo '<b>'.$db->Record["user"].':</b> ';
$sql = "SELECT emote, image FROM c_emotes";
$result = mysql_query($sql, $db->linkid);
while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result, MYSQL_ASSOC)) {
$emotes[] = $row['emote'];
$images[] = "<img src='".$row['image']."'>";
}
if($db->Record['system'] != 1) {
$message = htmlentities($db->Record["text"]);
} else {
$message = $db->Record["text"];
}
$message = str_replace($emotes, $images, $message);
echo $message."<br>\n";
flush();
endwhile;
It displays just fine if you refresh, but unless you refresh, you don't see
any new data. Any ideas?
Thanks,

ob_end_clean() goes at the top.
flush() goes after *every* pice of info you want to show real-time.
Basically, after every echo or group of echos.
