SV: [PHP] multi-threading within php?

Then I would have to write a parser when I have already written my own spider. But the problem isn't the spider itself, but rather the lack of multi-threading within PHP (which is needed in quite alot of sitatuations, depending on what you're coding). I'm not sure if it really does lack multi-threading though, it might just be me that doesn't know about it. Is there any way to execute several functions simultaneously?

You may want to use 'wget' spider function, then parse the files with PHP if necessary. http://wget.sunsite.dk/ bvr.
