Description: ------------ It appears to me that stream_set_timout() does not do anything of value. You can set it prior to a while loop; but, it does nothing to help you exit the loop if the time expires. e.g., stream_set_timeout($fp, 20); $status = socket_get_status($fp); while (!feof($fp) && !$status['timed_out']) { $chunk = fread($fp, 10000); $length = strlen($chunk); $html_str .= $chunk; sleep(2); $status = socket_get_status($fp); } //end while, fetching data If fread() hangs up, the script hangs. You can do exactly the same thing by simply keeping track of elapsed time in the loop. Set stream_set_blocking($fp, FALSE ) so fread() keeps going and the loop continues until the elapsed time expires. -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=32058&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (php4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32058&r=trysnapshot4 Try a CVS snapshot (php5.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32058&r=trysnapshot50 Try a CVS snapshot (php5.1): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32058&r=trysnapshot51 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32058&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32058&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32058&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32058&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32058&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32058&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32058&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32058&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32058&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32058&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32058&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32058&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32058&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32058&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32058&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32058&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32058&r=mysqlcfg
