Edit report at http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=33594&edit=1 ID: 33594 Comment by: immeemosol+pub at googlemail dot com Reported by: jonathan at vstadi dot com Summary: Is there a difference between fsockopen and sfsockopen stream_socket_client ??? Status: Bogus Type: Documentation Problem Package: Documentation problem Operating System: all PHP Version: Irrelevant Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: No, it does not "imply a bug in PHP itself", isn't that why it says: Package: Documentation problem a difference i see is that stream_socket_client() is only available since php5. stream_socket_client() - optional flags( conn.type: normal, async or persistent). stream_socket_client() - no extra port-parameter, can be set in first param. fsockopen() - seems to not support ssl in some cases Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-07-07 15:27:35] vrana@php.net Sorry, but your problem does not imply a bug in PHP itself. For a list of more appropriate places to ask for help using PHP, please visit http://www.php.net/support.php as this bug system is not the appropriate forum for asking support questions. Due to the volume of reports we can not explain in detail here why your report is not a bug. The support channels will be able to provide an explanation for you. Thank you for your interest in PHP. At first sight, they accept different parameters. Both of them can be used for some tasks but they are not synonyms for sure. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-07-06 23:32:31] jonathan at vstadi dot com Description: ------------ in the php.net doc there is no way of telling if there is a diference betwen fsockopen() and stream_socket_client() are there synonym??? if no what are the difference? the advantages of each other ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=33594&edit=1
