Hey again, I managed to get my thread doing timeouts, thanks to everyone who helped me. Now I have another dilemma to come across. The timeout sub in the thread successfully does timeouts, and removes them accordingly. However, I need the thread to print to an already open Socket that it has timed out the certain item. I have SOCK open, to which my program connects to the server, which was activated in the main program. For some odd reason, I can't get the thread to print information to that same socket. I use the Socket.pm module. So the main program sends text like: send(SOCK,"text to send" . $newline,0); I execute this in the thread, and it does absolutely nothing. The server doesn't even receive the data. Is there a way to get around this?
