mysql_query() is not written by me. It is a part of the library that
supports MySQL engine. As far as I understand, I can not get any information
on how the query is progressing. The way it works is that you give it an SQL
query, it connects to a mysql daemon running either on a local machine or
on a remote host. The daemon processes this query and gives the result (data
stream) back. That's why I asked the question because it seemed I could not
use progress bar to show the query.
