Yes, I understand it would be a hassle to skip over already-processed
records. It's one reason I suggested saving the info in your session.
Once you've processed a record you can remove it from the "to be
processed" list (and if necessary add it to a "completed" list).

Refresh is just redirect to the same page, which you can do, also. But
fsockopen() won't help. The process doing the fsockopen() will still
time out after 10 seconds. You need to actually transfer control to
another page (or the same one again).
