A configuration option will allow an administrator to tune the default timeout value. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-08-28 08:14:06] spic@php.net Reclassified as Filesystem-"Bug" ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2000-06-20 19:03:23] schwenke@jobpilot.de If one tries to fetch a remote HTML document via fopen("http://some.host/foo/bar") and there is a connectivity problem (say a misconfigured router), this function will not return in a reasonable time. There should be a timeout option, as the fsockopen function already has. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=5153&edit=1
