socket creation!!!

Hi,

i'm using a TCP_IP socket.
everyone knows that in a client/server program, wen client sends a lot of packets continuously and if there is a delay in reading from the socket on the server side, the recv(), call reads everything from the buffer...

thats is the problem i'm facing. so i'm tryin to create a socket with SOCK_SEQPACKET, type... i know we cant use AF_INET family, i tried PF_INET, but it still doesn't work.

can anyone say how to use this sock_seqpacket type???

Thnx,
sri

socket_set_block - Sets blocking mode on a socket resource

SYNOPSIS
bool socket_set_block (resource $socket) DESCRIPTION
The socket_set_block(3) function removes the O_NONBLOCK flag on the socket specified by the $socket parameter. When an operation (e.g. receive, send, connect, accept, ...) is performed on a blocking socket, the script will pause its execution until it receives a signal or it can perform the operation. PARAMETERS
o $socket - A valid socket resource created with socket_create(3) or socket_accept(3). RETURN VALUES
Returns TRUE on success or FALSE on failure. EXAMPLES
Example #1 socket_set_block(3) example <?php $socket = socket_create_listen(1223); socket_set_block($socket); socket_accept($socket); ?> This example creates a listening socket on all interfaces on port 1223 and sets the socket to O_BLOCK mode. socket_accept(3) will hang until there is a connection to accept.
