Hello, I'm new to this list and hope you can help. I've written a chat server that uses Macromedia Flash as the front end client. You can see it in action at http://www.in-a-flash.org/chat/chat.html. A mod_perl script is the server and it works fine, but when a Windows Explorer user is logged in and shutsdown without closing the socket, quitting IE first or giving another app focus, it kills the chat server. It's easy to restart but annoying as heck. For the record, it doesn't seem to make a difference which version of Perl or mod_perl distribution. Windows Netscape Navigator doesn't kill the server. I'm using IO::Socket and IO::Select. If anyone has any suggestions, I'd appreciate it. Thanks, Jennifer Petkus
