}

.blank {
  background-color: white;
  width: 300px;
}
</style>
";

  // Now output the basic,initial,XHTML that
  // will be overwritten later:
  echo "
<div id='text'>Script Progress</div>
<div id='barBox_a'></div>
<div class='bar blank'></div>
<div class='per'>0%</div>

  // Ensure that this gets to the screen

  flush();

// A function that you can pass a percentage as
// a whole number and it will generate the
// appropriate new div's to overlay the
// current ones:

function update_progress($percent) {
  // First let's recreate the percent with
  // the new one:
  echo "<div class='per'>{$percent}
    %</div>\n";

  // Now,output a new 'bar',forcing its width
  // to 3 times the percent,since we have
  // defined the percent bar to be at
  // 300 pixels wide.
  echo "<div class='bar' style='width: ",$percent * 3,"px'></div>\n";

  // Now,again,force this to be
  // immediately displayed:
  flush();
}

// Ok,now to use this,first create the
// initial bar info:
create_progress();

// Now,let's simulate doing some varIoUs
// amounts of work,and updating the progress
// bar as we go. The usleep commands will
// simulate multiple lines of code
// being executed.
