understanding time outs

[siliconmike]

I'm using apache+php

I'm trying to understand how various timeouts work and where are the
settings..
Lets say a web browser requests page index.php which does some long
processing.

When would the web browser time out ?
When would apache time out ? Where are the settings ?
When would php time out ? Where are the settings ?

some concepts would be helpful.

When would apache time out ? Where are the settings ?
The Apache config file httpd.conf is located in the conf dir where you
have installed Apache. All Apache configuration options are there. I
think you are looking for this,

in httpd.conf
#
# Timeout: The number of seconds before receives and sends time out.
#
Timeout 300

When would php time out ? Where are the settings ?

Php config file is php.ini,
in php.ini
max_execution_time = 300 ; Maximum execution time of each script,
in seconds

Changing those setting might help you.
