    Actually, I don't want to keep an eye on it - I just need ti to carry on until it's finished.

    Effectively I need system "long_running_code with parameters &"; but not in the shell as I need to pass arguments

      I'm sure if you *read* the article, the only diff you'll notice is what you do in the parent after the fork (create a meta-refresh page like merlyn does or another landing page like you do).
