It's not so much PHP's fault, but the underlying code from MS that PHP uses (AFAICT). Setting a stream to non blocking and then immediately asking if it is blocking shows that it is still blocking. http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=34972 is the best example of this issue. Especially the last comment ... "what makes you think that anything has been done about this feature request?". I'm not holding my breath for a fix. -- Richard Quadling Twitter : EE : Zend @RQuadling : e-e.com/M_248814.html : bit.ly/9O8vFY -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
