I incorporate content from another server, and have run into a severe problem.

The other server was taken down for maintenance, and whenever my site attempts to contact it, I get a hard crash of my Witango server (Client/Server Plug-in Error) and have to manually relaunch the Witango server to get it to work again (even for non-related requests).

My original thought was to test the value of the @URL and if it was empty (e.g. the server was unavailable), eliminate that piece of content. But with it crashing at every failed request attempt , I can't even test and build an error trap!

What's going on, and how can I work around this problem? Eliminating the content from the other server (and hence the @URL call) is not an option... I've tried restarting the machine in the hopes that it was a temporary settings problem, but no luck there either.

Everything works fine as long as the other server is up, but I obviously can't guarantee 100% up time on someone else's machine.

Mac OS X 10.3.4
Witango 5.0.1.062
