[nycphp-talk] Processing, please wait logic flow question

Many web sites display a "processing please wait" page after submitting
an order, request, etc. and then display the final confirmation page
when it's available.
 
I'm confused by how that works. Does the server-side script spit out a
"processing" page by flushing the output buffer and then redirect when
the script is completed? Or does the client-side JavaScript display the
"processing" page while the server script goes about its business?
