I did not have a problem with that as I use file() and not fopen() (much
easier - you don't have to deal with reading and writing to file descriptors).
if you have a problem with the internal HTTP wrappers' behaviour, you can
easly use the cURL extension which allows you to do anything you want, and
is relativly easy to use (compared to socket programming). there is no reason
to use sockets when other people have already implemented that functionality,
solved all the bugs and provide you with a clean and useful interface.
