I know in PHP 5 you can use stream_socket_client() and set the flag to
STREAM_CLIENT_ASYNC_CONNECT|STREAM_CLIENT_CONNECT which opens the socket
in a non blocking mode.
in php 4 you can use fsockopen and then set the socket to non blocking.
The problem with this is that the fsockopen blocks until it creates the
socket or times out.
I want to know if there is a replacement for fsockopen that attempts to
open a socket, but returns immediately instead of blocking or is there
another way to open a socket in a non blocking mode in PHP 4
thanks
Clive.
