}

if(preg_match("/^\d{1,3}\.\d{1,3}\.\d{1,3}\.\d{1,3}\z/",@$_GET['ip']) == true)
{
    dnsbllookup($_GET['ip']);
}
?>

and what this does it checks an IP if is listed on certain blacklists

http://127.0.0.1/check4_html.php?ip=123.123.123.123

Not listed on 123.123.123.123.access.redhawk.org!
Not listed on 123.123.123.123.b.barracudacentral.org!
Not listed on 123.123.123.123.bl.csma.biz!
Not listed on 123.123.123.123.bl.emailbasura.org!

bu i have a little problem, i want to flush the output every time a check has been made, how can i do this?

The first thing that happen when the script runs, i wait 20 secs and then 20 checks pops up, then 1 per second, why is that?

Any help would be appreciated.

Is this what you want to achieve : http://codepad.viper-7.com/76Amxe — Baba, Oct 15 '12 at 18:16

xampp, and now i'm working on a different approach, i'm trying to use ajax and request DNSBL one by one http://codepad.org/gmJDLvIb, would you help me? here is a little bit of jquery — Master345, Oct 15 '12 at 20:18
I used Firebug .. got to fine out that flush actually works ... but the browser waits for it to have a certain number (10) of content before its starts to display ... Use This http://codepad.viper-7.com/kCHQOx — Baba, Oct 15 '12 at 20:26

This Concept works for me :)

ini_set('output_buffering','on');
ini_set('zlib.output_compression', 0);
ini_set('implicit_flush',1);
ob_implicit_flush();

echo ("<html><head><head><body>");
for($i=0;$i<20;$i++) {
      echo $i;
      echo str_repeat(" ", 500);
      ob_flush();
      flush();
      sleep(1);
}

How would you combine this with the script the OP posted? I have the original script working, but am facing the same delay at the beginning. – Sherwin Flight Jun 02 '14 at 01:54

flush() doesn't appear to be part of "output buffering" (ob).. Use ob_flush(). Also there should be no need for ob_end() and ob_start() if you use the proper function. :)

void ob_flush ( void )

This function will send the contents of the output buffer (if any). If you want to further process the buffer's contents you have to call ob_get_contents() before ob_flush() as the buffer contents are discarded after ob_flush() is called.

This function does not destroy the output buffer like ob_end_flush() does.

did you call `ob_start()` (once) at the beginning of your request? – Gung Foo Oct 15 '12 at 17:57
can you try it on your local please to see this? i have used flush and ob_flush before, but i don't know why this is not working – Master345 Oct 15 '12 at 18:00
there is no ob_start() in that code. and it throws an error: Warning: preg_match(): Internal pcre_fullinfo() error -3 on line 125... what are you smoking over there? :P – Gung Foo Oct 15 '12 at 18:01
:)) believe me, codepad is just for copy/paste at my local it works, and this http://codepad.org/WnyIYSDb have the same result, it output after the script is done – Master345 Oct 15 '12 at 18:03
hrm.. maybe not using ob is the way to go? http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4481235/php-flush-ob-flush-not-working – Gung Foo Oct 15 '12 at 18:10
and if i run this with `php script.php` in linux it may do what i want, but i want a webservice .. – Master345 Oct 15 '12 at 18:12
