Hello

I hate to come here with a question without any tried code but I really 
do not even know where to start, I have never attempted this before 
without a net.

What I would like to do is provide an output to the browser during a 
long processing term.

Exactly what I am doing is this.

I am loading a csv file to update inventory.

During this process I am flushing the current Table and then loading the 
new and then comparing the inventory table to a product table and would 
like to provide status of where we are in the process what items matched 
and changed and so forth in real time.

I have done some similar tasks in JS but with minimal steps in the 
processing then what I am trying to accomplish.

I did some binging and found that it may have to do with output 
buffering but nothing particular to my situation. (as far as I could find)

If this is possible could someone point me in the right direction and I 
will do the leg work.

Thanks
Scotty
