Hello - Does anybody know how to set some sort of a timeout for the get_meta_tags? My previous 'solution' was to open up a socket ahead of time to test for site's status - but this didn't work very well. If a site doesn't respond, it seems to keep trying infinitely, which creates a huge problem for my script. Does anyone know a more elegant solution to set a timeout? TIA Erik Monson erik.monson@gte.net
