Hi Guys,
Very new to php so excuse any stupid questions.
One of my sites has a product search, when a search is performed (between 2-10 fields) it takes quite sometime for the database to return the results.
Im worried that because the search is taking say 5-12 seconds my users are trying to refresh or leave the site.
I found a answer to this and it can be seen on the site teletextholidays.co.uk - if you perform a search on this holiday site it displays a graphic like a timer so that the users know the site is still processing the search.
So the steps are ...
1) Submit a search
2) Page displays with a timer graphic
3) Once the database returns the results the display page with the timer graphic is redirected to display the search results.
So my question is ... how do i do this using php ?
Thanks
Trevor
