Is there a function to delay output from a form. In other words I want to make it look like it's a strenuous process and not spit the answer right back at the user.

Take a look at the function sleep()
void sleep(int seconds) The sleep function delays program execution for the given number of seconds.
or
void usleep(int micro_seconds) The usleep function delays program execution for the given number of micro_seconds.

Great. Now if we took it one step further and added the little pop up window that says..."We're processing your request.." like you see at some of the reservation booking sites. I think this is js?

Now for that... that is a normal thing i do... first i display my wait page, which has a hidden form, and a javascript that says "onLoad='document.form.submit()'"
