simple php server and client 1

[chals1]

I'm a very newbie on php and don't figure out how sockets work. Can you show any simple code? For example a client which sends a string to a server at known ip and this one sends back a message

I get an error when running a script with sockets.It says something like..

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: socket_create() in C:\Archivos de programa\Abyss Web Server\htdocs\sock.php on line 2

Do I need to install some kind of module for it to work???

chals1,

Any chance that we could see the code for 'sock.php', especially line 2?

<?php
$socket = socket_create(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, SOL_TCP); 
socket_bind($socket,'localhost',1337); 
socket_listen($socket);
while($connection = socket_accept($socket)) 
{ 
socket_write($connection,'You\'ve successfully connected to my
computer!\r\n'); 
           } 
?>

chals1,

Check out the example on the next page of the tutorial at

http://www.phpfreaks.com/tutorials/50/2.

$socket = socket_create(AF_INET,SOCK_STREAM,SOL_TCP); 
$connection = socket_connect($socket,'irc.freenode.net',6667);

You seem to be missing the second statement.
