Hi........ I am a beginner. I have developed website in Php/MySql. But my home page takes some more time to load in some of the browsers Check this http://www.direct2deal.com Can Mysql stored procedures help me? I don't know the concepts of stored procedures. If any buddy in group knows pl. help me Its very urgent. Your feedback/suggestions will be highly appreciated.
First of all I would like to welcome you to this Wonderful community of programmers. What version of MySQL you are using. If you are using 4.x version of MySQL it does not support stored procedures but its just 5.0 that supports. I dont think it can help much the problem area is something different. On the home page you are almost showing 50 Recods but if you can reduce that it will load faster as 50 records nees 50 + images to be loaded. Show only 10-15 and it should be fine. Thanks Shabbir Bhimani
I guess you have put too much content on your homepage, it takes ages to scroll down to the end, it would be faster if you show your content in a categorized manner on the homepage. It takes time to fetch data & render it, and as you have tons of data on your homepage, it takes time to load.
The Zend Optimizer can help with the rendering of the php. http://www.zend.com/store/products/zend-optimizer.php (yes is free)
