I have a long running job that only give results at the end of it. Til that time you still see the form that started it.
User may think something is wrong, because nothing is happening. So I want the job to show something like a counter.... Maybe javascript can help me, but how?
Any suggestion is welcome.
Thanks.

Welcome to WebmasterWorld, Wimpie.

In case your script runs in some kind of a loop, can't you just echo some stuff to the browser in every loop?
