Subject: PHP script needs to timeout upon FOPEN to URL
I have the following line:
while (!($file = @fopen("http://www.myurl.com";, "r")) && time() <
$startTime + $time);
if (!$file){
echo "Timed out, try again later";
} else {
// do stuff
}
Problem is, when it attempts to connect to the remote server, it's supposed
to time out after 2-5 seconds, but it doesn't, it just locks up :( Any
suggestions?
Phil
