Hi, I have a script in which there is a call to open a remote file:
fopen ("http://www.somewhere.com/file.php?foo=bar", "r"); Sometimes if www.somewhere.com is down, it will stuck at the function for very long a time. I hope to setup a timeout limit for this function (just this), so that it won't stay very long to wait for a result, but just quit if the call take a time longer than timeout limit, and then go on for next steps. Thanks in advance!
