Ok, let me try and your problem straight. Which of these is it:

1. This 'mysql_query()' function is written by you as part of your
application, such that you know when it is making progress, and you
can set the state of the progress bar from inside this function.

2. This 'mysql_query()' is part of something else to which you hand
off a request, and then it comes back some time later with a result.

If it's 1, the the previous answer is what you are looking for.

If it's 2, then how do you know how this function is progressing, and
hence, with what value to set the progress bar?
