[webkit-dev] how to create a test that can perform actions while resources are still loading?

[Jenn Braithwaite (胡慧鋒)]

I need the inline script to be in the iframe content so that the test does
not execute until the iframe has started loading (but has not completed).  I
tried the php below, but the script doesn't execute until after the sleep. I
don't know php.  Is my php wrong?  Or does DRT buffer the response until the
entire response is complete?

<?php
header("Expires: Thu, 01 Dec 2003 16:00:00 GMT");
header("Cache-Control: no-cache, no-store, must-revalidate");
header("Pragma: no-cache");
header("Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8");
echo("<script>parent.opener.test();</script>");
ob_flush();
flush();
sleep(10);
?>

Thanks,
Jenn
