Hi Martie

Great - thanks - I think you hit the nail on the head. I have tried
some of the other solutions using ob_flush() or flush() and they just
don't make a difference. But my pages all use nested tables to arrange
the content.

Bearing that in mind I'll eaither go for another kind of progress
indicator or just redesign the page using CSS to format the text
areas.
