JavaScript inside PHP while loop not working

Question

I am using Js code inbetween php. I am trying make the body empty and append php text for every loop. php code works fine, but js works only when php has completed the script fully. Someone Please help

<?php
    while($row = $result->fetch_assoc()){

            $count++;
            $email = "";
            $email = $row['email_id'];
            $result_row_count = $result->num_rows; 
            ?>

            <script type ="text/javascript">
            $(document).ready(function(){
            $("body").empty();
            });
            </script>

            <?php
            echo '<h4> Sending Mails '.$count.' of '.$result_row_count.' ---     '.$email.'</h4>';
            flush();
            ob_flush();
            sleep(1);
    ?>

$(document).ready(function(){})...remove this and just use $("body").empty(); But it's not a good way of doing things. — Mykola Borysyuk

php runs on the server, creates the necessary content and send it back to the web server. The web page waits for the web server to deliver the requested page. The browser executes any scripts that need to be run. Can you see why your code will not work? — user2417483

$(document).ready(function(){ }); this function working only after page loading complete. and you trying to use this function in between loop. loop working multiple times but not with page refresh.
