 |
|
Hello Everyone,
I'm writing a PHP script that limits a certain number of connections to a file but I want to have a way to tell the download resuming clients when the maximum number of connections have been reached so that it stops at a certain amount of connections. What header can I use?
Edit: I believe the Error 503 will fix this. I think I fixed the problem but feel free to post if you know of a better way.
Sample Code:
| Code: | <?php
$connects = 2; // Active connections
$max_connects = 4; // Maximum connections allowed
if ($connects <= $max_connects)
{
...send the file
}
else
{
header("HTTP/1.1 503 Service Unavailable");
header("Retry-After: 30"); // let the client retry every 30 secs.
}
?>

Kind regards, Josh
