note 20699 added to function.fsockopen

Ahh, it doesn't stall at the connect, it stalls on the first socket read operation (I believe). Regardless, a simple socket_set_timeout($socketp, $time); following the fsockopen() fixed it. Just make sure to check those return values on reads so you know if the connection failed or not! :) -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.fsockopen.php http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+20699 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+20699 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+20699
