Reproduce code: --------------- you can use demo code in documentation. Expected result: ---------------- return false or an exception. do not generate warning message. Actual result: -------------- Warning: fsockopen() [function.fsockopen]: unable to connect to AA.BB.CC.DD:XY (Connection timed out) in /foo/bar/path.php on line 1234; ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=46258&edit=1
