From my previous post you can use http://php.net/stream_set_timeout so if your fread comes back with no data you should exit the function. btw, any reason why your using pfsocketopen vs. just fsocketopen? the pfsocketopen would be only needed if you plan on using that socket on a different page request. Come to think of it the pfsocketopen might even give you problems even if you use the stream_set_timeout function. HTH, Curt -- "I used to think I was indecisive, but now I'm not so sure."
