header.php opens and then i have to wait couple seconds for body

its taking too long to load?

[StuntasticAudi]

I have a website in php. It has a header.php, footer.php and then the content pages.

When the each page loads the header shows up quickly but then it takes couple seconds (sometimes even 10 sec) until the page loads.

What can be causing this problem? bad coding?

what is it trying to do?

could be a slow server/connection

could be million things.

Uf you could isolate it to a spot in the html then you can maybe look at a db call that is taking to long or a specifically slow function or something else

I'll lay odds it's XHTML/CSS rendering that's the problem; not PHP.
