Could someone show me exactly how to create a > non-blocking TCP/Stream socket? Thanks in advance. First, to make the initial socket creation/connection not block, you use: http://php.net/ini_set on that one socket connection timeout thingie in php.ini I can't remember right now. *THEN* after you have the socket up and running, you use: http://php.net/socket_set_block At least, that's the way I remember it from the last time I played this game... -- Some people have a "gift" link here.
