Php, wait 5 seconds before executing an action

Question

I have a .php script that I use for creating the list of my products. I am on shared hosting, so I can\'t do a lot of queries otherwise I get a blank page.

This

Answer 1

i use this

    $i = 1;
    $last_time = $_SERVER['REQUEST_TIME'];
    while($i > 0){
        $total = $_SERVER['REQUEST_TIME'] - $last_time;
        if($total >= 2){
            // Code Here
            $i = -1;
        }
    }

you can use

function WaitForSec($sec){
    $i = 1;
    $last_time = $_SERVER['REQUEST_TIME'];
    while($i > 0){
        $total = $_SERVER['REQUEST_TIME'] - $last_time;
        if($total >= 2){
            return 1;
            $i = -1;
        }
    }
}

and run code =>

WaitForSec(your_sec);

Example :

WaitForSec(5);

OR you can use sleep

Example :

sleep(5);
