how to let encoding run after browser window is closed?

[gevorg]

I want to allow users to send their movies for encoding, and be able to close the browser screen and the encoding to happen behind the scenes?

Anyone have any luck with this?

I am using the PHP CGI sample scripts for testing. I've tried the following php functions with no success:

set_time_limit(0); ignore_user_abort();

Thanks in advance.
