Hi,

I'm experimentating a bit with fetching a HTML file from
my webserver using the winsock.bas API calls.

So I coded a quick application... connected... gets data...
perfect! I close things using WSACleanUp and close the
socket (not very sure about these 2, something like that).

I make some modifications... start again... nothing...
I reboot, start again... everything's okay!

Again... Nothing... reboot... okay... nothing... reboot... okay... etc.

Now my question: what do you think is wrong here?

(It does connect the second time, but fetches NO data)

I think your connection is still alive.

why don't you use winsock.close statement instead of WSACleanUp

Can you put some code here, may be we can take a look and see what may be
wrong.

resistans a crit:

That might be true...

Because winsock.close is used to close a connection when we use the
winsock control. I use API calls.

It is quite a bit of code... but I think the connection is still open,
anybody here knows how to close it using the winsock.bas module
and API calls?
