Maybe it's not the browser complaining (at least not on its own) - I would
think your script runs into the maximum script execution time (by default
set to 30 seconds, but may differ depending on the host configuration).

One way to work around this, is to reset the counter after each loop using
set_time_limit().
http://php.net/set-time-limit

Like this:

for(short i = 0; i < LONG_INT; i++)
{
doSomething();
set_time_limit(30);
}
