PHP is to make internet content, not for long-working programs. So if you have problem pinging not responding server you will get timeout and script will be stoped. Yoy can try to enlarge timeout in php.ini but if you want to have constntlu running script it will fail. You may also use <META> tags with "refresh" prameter and split all this job into single steps. -- PHP Windows Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
