I put in our web server (which has a couple of virtual hosts on it) and got 16 host names back most of which are for completely different servers - all at purdue.edu, but not even in the same department.

Tedd,
Just because I'm a nit-picker, your comments are wrong. Exchange the right
and left comments and it's right.

[PHP] need "pop-up" in progress alert
Greetings, I'm relatively new to PHP and I've been lurking for a while on the list, but now I need a pointer or two. I have an application which has one function that does a lengthy process (installing a piece of software) and I don't want the user to panic thinking nothing is going on. So I want to put up a 'working' box or a progress bar. I have no idea how to do that. I haven't dipped my toes into pear yet. I don't even know how to install or use a pear module. If there is something available that doesn't require pear knowledge so much the better, I guess, but if this is the straw that gets me into pear, so be it. So if someone could point me in the right direction I'd really appreciate it. Thanks, Steve Holmes Purdue University
Re: [PHP] need "pop-up" in progress alert
Thanks (to both). Ajax is yet another thing I don't know anything about. :-). Time to do some studyin' up I guess.If there are any canned ajax solutions, I'd like to hear about them. Steve.

What we are trying to do is get the student/faculty population (tens of thousands of users) to keep their blog/bb/etc. software up to date by giving them a point and click method of updating them (wordpress, phpBB, drupal, etc). We can't *force* them to update, that's against policy, but they keep getting hacked and don't know/care enough to bother doing the update. > If you can't figure that out at least put in an ignore_user_abort to > prevent the user from hitting stop and messing up the installation > process.

Check permissions on the file for the user the web server is running under.
I.e. if the webserver is running as user Nobody, make sure the file can be
read by Nobody (you know what I mean).
