I'm currently trying to write a do while loop. Within this loop I want it to simply echo the value of a variable every second or so. My question is what date/time function can i use to distingish the length of time between each call? I looked over the date/time functs on w3schools.com and none seemed to fit my problem. Any help would be appreciated as usual.

CODE
do
{
$future = ;// i need this to be 3 seconds into the future
$now = time ();
$later =($future-$now) ;
$seconds =(int) ($difference*3) ;
if($seconds==$later)
echo $_SESSION['HP'];
}
while (!$_SESSION['FGTEND']);//while the value is lessened.
{
$future = ;// i need this to be 3 seconds into the future
$now = time ();
$later =($future-$now) ;
$seconds =(int) ($difference*3) ;
if($seconds==$later)
echo $_SESSION['HP'];
}
while (!$_SESSION['FGTEND']);//while the value is lessened.
i believe the above code will work if i can get the current time and add to the seconds to make it three seconds into the future. still looking up info about that tho. the plan is to put this in it[s own php file and run it using ajax

well that was an utter failure so im gonna resort to caveman tactics to give you an idea of what im trying to do.
check out the pretty pictures! I'm hoping it's so easy a caveman can do it... lol
