    The behavior may be browser dependent. I've noticed that Safari on Mac OS X doesn't incrementally load pages even if the output buffering is disabled by the script. However, Firefox does incrementally display the page.

    While more complicated, a solution developed by Randal Schwartz may be more appropriate, if you are trying to provide incremental feedback during a long-running operation.

    then you're between a rock and a hard place.

    you may need to refactor the output ... so that you're sending stuff more frequently .....

    without seeing any code, that's probably the best any of us can do ...
