Hi this script was working perfectly till we got moved to a server with a newer version of php 4.3.1 $fp = fsockopen ($row["url"], $row[port], $errno, $errstr, 30); if (!$fp) { echo "<img src=dead2.gif></td><td><center>n/a</center></td>"; } else { $data = fread($fp,12); Does anyone know how to fix it up? Thank You Alexandra
