Hi,
I have a weboage that connects to a remote mysql server. When our network experiencing alot traffic this connection often times out and stops the page loading.
As the data provided from the db is only a small part of the overall page, how might one go about scripting php to cope with the timeout and continue loading the rest of the page, rather than stopping everything loading just because of one timeout. I was also going to change the default timeout of php from 60 to 5 seconds, any problems with this?
Cheers
Andy
