What happens when you remove the first half of the if(), the bit that relies on fsockopen(), and only use curl? -- http://www.otton.org/ -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Nothing works. I was using curl actually. It was hell slow. Then I added the fsockeopen option. Its slwo too. now I am thinking to add socket_* functions. But If dont know what is the problem how can I resolve it. change scheme may not solve it. :( -- Blog: http://talk.cmyweb.net/ Follow me: http://twitter.com/shiplu

Here's a script that downloads a 6Mb MP3: ?php $fp = fopen( temp1.mp3, wb ); $ch = curl_init(); curl_setopt( $ch, CURLOPT_URL, http://gramotunes.com/Life_is_Long.mp3; ); curl_setopt( $ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, 1 ); curl_setopt( $ch, CURLOPT_FILE, $fp ); curl_exec( $ch ); curl_close( $ch ); Save it as download.php, and run the following two commands: time php download.php time wget http://gramotunes.com/Life_is_Long.mp3 I get real0m6.105s and real0m5.927s If your results are about equal, then the problem is not with PHP. -- http://www.otton.org/ -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

They take same time. let me tell you how my code works. it download a file and in the same time it reports a progress by a call back function. this script is called from web. not console. it provides live debug messages. I'll give you a time wise debug log. -- Blog: http://talk.cmyweb.net/ Follow me: http://twitter.com/shiplu
