At the very least, "timeout" is the wrong wording, "delay" would be more appropriate. A timeout is usually associated with starting a task and waiting for it to complete, and continuing if it fails to complete in a given timeframe, typically also aborting the task at the same time (ie. executing a database query, connecting to a server, waiting for an event/lock, etc.). -- Lasse Vågsæther Karlsen http://usinglvkblog.blogspot.com/ mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] PGP KeyID: 0x2A42A1C2 -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
