Long running perl script

[ommz]

I have a perl script on my server that runs for 15seconds and is supposed to display the results on a php file but the php file finishes loading even before the perl script is done. What do i do to keep the php file waiting until the perl script is done?

Is your php script executing the perl script, or is the perl script executing the php script?

Please provide more details on your process and what you're needing to accomplish.

I figured it out. Have to use the sleep() function to delay the execution of the php script until the perl script is done executing
