| In my PHP page, I need to run a external program to insert map data
| into Postgresql. However, the process is very slow (can be 10 mins).

| running and permits the user to browse the other parts of the web
| application.
|
| My idea is to run the "exec();" after the </html> tag. Would that be
| the way?

I think it's a wrong idea, there is a more sophisticated way to achive
this. For more information see register_shutdown_function() in the PHP
manual. (http://php.net/register_shutdown_function)
