Hi, guys,
     I remember someone post a similar question before, but I can't find
the post or the
answer.
     My problem is that: when a existing web server is down, the POST
process
hangs there "Contacting xxxxhostname". So I put in:

HTHost_setEventTimeout (30000);  // half a min, right?

Then let the event loop start.

     But it doesn't work.
     I really appreciate any information about this.




Regards,
Linda
