By Php scripts I am connecting to database SERVER: <?php $port="9939"; $host="210.111.1.10"; pg=pg_connect($port,$host); .... ....
?> It works good enough. But problem is if somebody suddenly switch off the server(210.111.1.10), the script hangs on. How would my script check that host is open before connecting? ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 5: Have you checked our extensive FAQ? http://www.postgresql.org/users-lounge/docs/faq.html
