Hey, why were my comments regarding fsockopen connection timeouts taken out? I'm sure they would have been very useful to other users. fsockopen (on FreeBSD and probably OpenBSD) will ignore the connection timeout parameter, and hang for several minutes if it can't connect for a variety of reasons (no DNS resolve, host down, extreme firewall setups). Use curl instead until a solution is found (i spent days on this issue) ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.fsockopen.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+46120 Delete -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+46120&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+46120&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
