flush
| Format: flush () |
Purpose: Flushes the current output buffer.
Return Values: The flush() function does not return a useful value.
Example:
// The example shows how to use the flush function to // flush a file buffer within a writefile tag or to // flush the buffer of the output that is sent to the client. <defenv complextask><for i=1 i<10000 i=i+1;/for></defenv> <writefile shelltemp()+"/myfile"> <for t=1 t<10 t=t+1;complextask;?".";let flush();/for> </writefile> <for t=1 t<10 t=t+1;complextask;?".";let flush();/for> |
Tip: The flush() function is useful in heitml applications that perform time consuming tasks and require something like a progress bar.
| Note: The flush() function has no effect inside HTML tables, since browsers render a table after the complete table has been sent. This is the reason why we did not execute the example above. |
