Re: Website Suggestion - Example code with Output's Examples

Hi and thank you, I noticed it has '*Return Values*' section for each section but for the *Example #1* / *Example #2* etc don't seem to have the output with it. For example: *http://www.php.net/manual/en/sockets.examples.php <http://www.php.net/manual/en/sockets.examples.php>* (Below code) There does not seem to have a output of what this does or am I just not seeing it? #!/usr/local/bin/php -q > <?php > error_reporting(E_ALL); > > /* Allow the script to hang around waiting for connections. */ > set_time_limit(0); > > /* Turn on implicit output flushing so we see what we're getting > * as it comes in. */ > ob_implicit_flush(); > > $address = '192.168.1.53'; > $port = 10000; > > if (($sock = socket_create(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, SOL_TCP)) === false) { > echo "socket_create() failed: reason: " . socket_strerror( > socket_last_error()) .
