assimilated Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 So i have this script that connects to a game data base and it must select and make a top of some columns in data base. The thing is if the data base is offline then the script kinda blocks the website because it has no timeout option. How can i add like a $timeout=2 (in seconds) thing..so if after 2 seconds it gets no connection the script is killed Thanks in advance <?php $database_info = array( 'host' => '___', 'user' => '___', 'password' => '___', 'l2jdb' => '___' ); @mysql_connect($database_info['host'], $database_info['user'], $database_info['password']) or die(mysql_error()); @mysql_select_db($database_info['l2jdb']) or die(mysql_error()); echo "<table class=\"pvp\">"; $query = "SELECT * FROM characters WHERE accesslevel = 0 ORDER BY pvpkills DESC limit 10"; //change 10 to whatever amount you want to show on your website. $result = mysql_query($query) or die(mysql_error()); while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) { $name = $row['char_name']; $pvpscore = $row['pvpkills']; // Inserting data into the table echo " <tr> <td width=\"110\"><strong> $name</strong></td> <td width=\"50\"><div align=\"center\">$pvpscore</div></td> </tr>"; } echo "</table>"; //closing mysql connection mysql_close(); ?> Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/237211-timeout/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
