I'm using cURL and have a question about this line (part of a function)
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_PROXY, $proxy2use);
I know that *after* I curl_exec() i can find out if the proxy resolved
or not with curl_errno() (it would return 5) but it seems that if it
does fail to resolve, it will default to the users IP
This is not acceptable ;-)
I already check that the proxy is up and i can connect to it prior to
running my curl function, but if the proxy still doesnt resolve, how
might i prevent the curl function form executing?
You may want to try this HTTP client class instead. It supports requests 
via proxies and does not use Curl.

Hmmm.. good point Manuel, i have seen the class, in fact it was the
original way i /was/ going to build the script. Wouldnt be hard to rip
out the cURL function and replace it with an http method, thanks...
