WHILE($list = mysql_fetch_ass oc($result) {
set_time_limit( 2); // Timelimit 2 seconds for sending each mail
mail($list[email], $list[Subject], $list[Message]);
}
set_time_limit( 5); // Timelimit to finish script

Suppose after specified seconds, my script has to expire and reload again, what should i do?

What exactly are you trying to do? Could you post some code?

this is my php code for registering a user with a password.

<?php

//replace username and password with your mysql name and password
$conn = mysql_connect(" localhost","roo t","mobileproje ct") or die("Connection Error");

//select the database
$db = mysql_select_db ("test")or die("Connection Error");
session_start() ;
$_SESSION['username'] = $_POST['username'];
echo $_SESSION['username'];
$password = md5($_POST['password']);
$email = $_POST["email"];

//insert the values
$result= MYSQL_QUERY("IN SERT INTO users (username, password)".
"VALUES ('{$_SESSION['username']}', '$password')");

$temp_table=mys ql_query("creat e table {$_SESSION['username']}(name varchar(30) not null,source varchar(30),des tn varchar(30),fli ght varchar(10),sea t int);")or die("creation error");
$temp_value=mys ql_query("inser t into {$_SESSION['username']}(name,source,d estn,flight,sea t)values('{$_SE SSION['username']}','0','0','0', '0')")or die("Insertion Error");
echo "Your name and password have been submitted into our database :)";
echo "<br/>";
echo "<a href=login.php> Back to Login</a>"
?>

now my objective is to set the time to live for the script. suppose if i am going to set 10 minutes for the script, the script should expire after 10 minutes and have to reload again? what will be solution to this?

Why don't you just do as was requested in the previous post?? Enclose your code within code or php tags. Or else read the Posting Guidelines before you show anything here.
