Re: Temp Webpage While Creating Final PHP Webpage

What level of "freshness" is required? Could you put a Perl program in cron to refresh the PHP page on a schedule and have it always be "fresh enough" for your purposes? Maybe every 10 minutes?

What I decided to do was present the page with all of the information at hand, but skipping the data that I need to go get from the internet. That shortens the waiting time up a lot. There already is an updating function running in the background which updates the page after 5 minutes or so, including the internet data. Thanks - jb	[reply]
