I did set a timeout, but it doesnt seem to affect anything. My program still goes into an infinite loop in HTEventList_loop(request); I also do have a handler defined as indicated by Richard, but that too doesnt get called in this case. Does libwww terminate gracefully on not finding a webserver, or is this a bug ?
