anyway to exceed max execution time?

Hello all;

I set "max_execution_time = 120" in my php.ini file so that some lengthy php
routines in my auction software would have time to complete when
automatically relisting lots of items.

However, sometimes even 2 minutes is not long enough. I don't want to
increase the max time to 10 or 15 minutes, so I'm wondering if there is any
way to allow a specific PHP file to exceed the max_execution_time?

TIA.

set_time_limit(yourlimit)
http://www.php.net/set-time-limit


or ini_set('max_execution_time',yourlimit);
http://www.php.net/ini_set


I hope that's what you need.


Cheers.

max_execution_time = 0
This option is equivalent to have infinite time

....but do you really expect your users to wait that long. And not click
the 'submit' button again.

You need to fix the real problem - not fix the problems in the
workaround.

No, don't want to set it to unlimited, just a little longer than normal.
