    If a connection opened by <function>fsockopen</function> wasn't closed

    below example:

     <programlisting role="php">

<?php

 return feof($fp);
}

/* Assuming $fp is previously opened by fsockopen() */

$start = NULL;
$timeout = ini_get('default_socket_timeout');

while(!safe_feof($fp, $start) && (microtime(true) - $start) < $timeout)

    If the passed file pointer is not valid you may get an infinite loop, because
    <function>feof</function> fails to return &true;.
