URL Timer? Is it Possible?

[luthriaajay]

Is there any variable in the URL method which can be set to a particular
value so that when we make a URL connection,the system tries to connect to the
URL for a specific number of seconds as set in this variable and if it doesnt
connect it returns back??

Can any one help me please? or am I wrong?

Let say you want to connect to a URL within 15 seconds,
if the system does not connect,ot returns 'Connection Timed out.Try Again'

Hai Friend,
We faced same type of implementation too. We didn't get direct function for this purpose. We started one thread to control this URL verifier function and thread have the life time of 15 seconds. If the thread didn't get any reply from URL verifier, then it kills the verifying process and give the statement the URL is not verified and time out error.

I hope this idea may helpfull to u..

With Regards
Siva
