css causing fatal error rendering large report

[WebDevGuy]

Here's what I have found:
1 - if I load the page with a style sheetsheet it renders properly when returning up to several hundred rows.
2 - when it returns a couple of thousand rows, I get a php fatal error - 30 second timeout
3 - when I run the same page returning several thousand rows from the query WITHOUT the stylesheet, it runs fine and quickly.

There are probably 30 styled tags per while loop.

What could be wrong and how do I fix it?

Hi,

It just sounds as though its taking longer than the 30 seconds allowed when you have all the style information being processed.

You could increase the time allowed before an error occurs and see what happens.

This seems more like a php issue than a css issue.

it's wierd. it's like there are "blips" of converging the data and rendering it to a styled page - takes some rows, render then take some more rows,...

I took only the essential stylings into the page and did not link to the sheet, it worked better.
