After I click the submit button, I need to print two different statements. For ex :

echo "Hello user";

and

echo "Nice to meet you !";

But after printing the first statement, I want to give it a few seconds of time before it prints the next statement. Is there any predefined function to get such result ? If not, how can we get a pause between them ?

No, there's no such function. – u_mulder Apr 28 '17 at 09:20

You should do this with javascript – Antony Thompson Apr 28 '17 at 09:28
After each `echo`, flush the buffer to the browser, give a pause, send a second `echo` and then flush the buffer again. How to flush the buffer @ http://php.net/manual/en/function.ob-flush.php and delay the PHP thread @ http://php.net/manual/en/function.sleep.php – Suhail Gupta Apr 28 '17 at 09:53
