RE: [PHP] Some questions regarding pfsocketopen()

One last question, do you know how or what method I would use to do this via a php script? Everything I've tried fails. Like Makeconnection.php <? $mysocket = pfsocketopen('my.server.com', '1234'); ?> -------------- testconenction.php <? fputs($mysocket, "VERSION\n"); echo fgets($mysocket, 255); ?> if I call the makeconnection.php script and then call the testconnection right after it fails with invalid file resource error. > -----Original Message----- > From: Chris Shiflett [mailto:shiflett@php.net] > Sent: Thursday, January 02, 2003 2:47 PM > To: Gareth Hastings; 'PHP-List' > Subject: Re: [PHP] Some questions regarding pfsocketopen() > > --- Gareth Hastings <gareth@netgs.co.uk> wrote: > > Could anyone tell me, is it possible to connect to > > a persistent socket after it has been opened by a > > different script? > > Sure.
