[PHP] How to tell if a socket is connected

2006-06-09 Thread Michael W.
Hello, Can any of you tell me how to tell whether a socket (from fsockopen()) is connected or not? Specifically, whether the remote server has closed the connection? Stream_get_meta_data() does not do it; in my tests, its output does not change even when the server closes the stream. Thank you,
