PHP: Sock it's!

[Sailor5]

Ahoy Sailors!

It's been noted this isn't the best language to use, But for reasons I can't explain, I want to use PHP. I found a script on the net that allows connections of multiple scripts (via sockets) to be handled, Which is perfect for what I need, However when I adapt it to sending data between ALL the connected scripts, it becomes picky & doesn't send to everyone(Which is the problem).

I emailed the author & he said
""The active sockets are probably located in an array, sending a message to every client would be a matter of iterating over each client and sending the data.""

However I'm unable to script the cure(never did anything above echoing & editing HTML in PHP) I'm sure the smart people here at ubuntu forums.org will know what to do.

Here's the master.php
<?php

/*

Simple "echo back" TCP server.

*/

include("supersocket.class.php");

##### FIRST WITH OUR CALLBACKS #####
function newdata($socket_id, $channel_id, $buffer, &$obj)
{
echo "What do you want to send?\n";
$buffer = fread(STDIN, 80);
$obj->write($socket_id, $channel_id, $buffer);
}

$socket = new SuperSocket(array("*:404")); // will listen on ALL IPs over port 10000
$socket->assign_callback("DATA_SOCKET_CHANNEL", "newdata");
$socket->start();
$socket->loop();
?>And here's the SUPER SOCKET class!
