[chiPHPug-discuss] hi, PHP gurus in Chicago land

Hi to all PHP gurus in Chicago land!

I have been working with C/C++/Perl in UNIX/LINUX environment for many years
and now want to create web for both myself and some projects at work.

I have experience with simple HTML, CGI and SQL, and a little bit PHP work
two years ago. I want to use PHP to make my user interface nice and friendly
-:)

I want this page talk to communicate with server and display contents.
Because users are not superuser so I run several listening process/thread on
server side, I wish this php page can constantly exchanges data with server.
Some process might take more than 10 minutes before sending feedback to
client.

First 'dump' question is, how PHP keeps alive and refresh itself?

Happy weekend to you all.

Joe
