Show the status of counter

[mich dobelman]

I have one script called counter.php (count till 100,000 when this script is
called).
I am caling this script through AJAX. I want to be able to show in the html
page
where this counter is at the moment.

if( window.XMLHttpRequest )
{
http_request = new XMLHttpRequest();
}

http_request.onreadystatechange = getResult;
http_request.open('POST', "counter.php, true );
http_request.send(null);

}

function getResult()
{
if( http_request.readyState == 4 )
{
if( http_request.status == 200 )
{

}
}
}

You might want to add a " around counter.php.

http_request.send(null);

}

function getResult()
{
if( http_request.readyState == 4 )
{
if( http_request.status == 200 )
{

}
}
}

Only the script knows where it is at the time. It cannot be told to
report how far it is when it is already running.

You could set an extern variable (file, database, etc.) to a certain
value on every 1000 or so 'count', which will be accessable to other
scripts.
