feof seems confused

[journy101]

Trying feof on a open socket, verified that the socket is a valid handle, then tryed

$fp = fsockopen("127.0.0.1",25);
if (feof($fp) == "TRUE")
echo "returned true";
else if (feof($fp) == "FALSE")
echo "returned false";
else
echo "feof seems confused";
fclose($fp)

I cant seem to get feof to return anything, seems to just sit there, if the last else was not there it would timeout

It seems to be blocking up. Can anyone shed some light on this for me?

Shouldn't it be something like this :

<?
$fp = fsockopen("127.0.0.1",25);
if (feof($fp) == true) { // or === true
echo "returned true";
} else if (feof($fp) == false) { // or === false
echo "returned false";
} else {
echo "feof seems confused";
}
fclose($fp)
?>

Thank you that worked perfectly, I was useing that code to try to debug this code

$fp = fsockopen("127.0.0.1",25);
stream_set_blocking($fp,false);
while (feof($fp) == false){
echo fgets($fp,128);
echo "<br>Still in loop";
}
echo "<br>Out of loop";
fclose($fp);

Will print about a hundred or so Still in loop, tells me feof is never returning true, which would mean Im not reaching the end, I dont understand why, I thought fgets would get any data waiting for me so I can start fputsing more commands?

Its confuseing me.
