hi folks,
i'm trying to develop an php application which would include php's socket programming.
But i get a fatal error saying that
Fatal error: Call to undefined function socket_create() in C:\wamp\www\SRI\Socke
t\socket.php on line 5

I've enabled the sockets in the php configuration file and restarted the server. But it doesn't work.
Can anybody help me? I'm using php 5.1.4 on windows platform.

i'm very sorry for not sending the coding. its like this
<?php
$host="192.168.1.99";
$port=1234;
set_time_limit(0);
$socket=socket_create(AF_INET,SOCK_STREAM,0) or die("Could not create socket");
$result=socket_bind($socket,$host,$port) or die("Could not bind to socket");
$result=socket_listen($socket,3) or die("Could not setup socket listener");
$spawn=socket_accept($socket) or die("Could not accept incoming connection");
$input=socket_read($spawn,1024) or die("Could not read input");
$input=trim($input);
$output=strrev($input)."\n";
socket_write($spawn,$output,strlen($output)) or die("Could not write output");
socket_close($spawn);
socket_close($socket);
?>
this give the fatal error on line 5.i've uncommented the ;extension=php_sockets.dll line in php.ini file by removing the preceding semicolon and i could see sockets enabled with my phpinfo(). what should i do? pls reply as early as possible. Is there any other way to send messages to computers on LAN?
