I am using windows binaries.

$fp = $fsockopen(($ip_addr, $port_no, $errno, $errstr, 30);
do {
   if (!feof($fp)) {
            $livedata = trim(fgets($fp,128));
             echo $livedata."\n";
    }
    else {
        break;
    }
} while(true);

when there is no data being sent by the server my script waits indefinitely at fgets. I tried using socket_set_blocking($fp, false) but that does get me data every one second. I tried to use socket_set_timeout that is when I found out it is not supported in windows binaries. Is there any other way to solve this problem in windows.

Correction to my earlier report. When using socket_set_blocking($fp, false) I am "not" getting data every one second

Why are you using $fsockopen and not fsockopen? That might be the cause of this bug.

correction that was a typo on my part. I did use fsockopen.
The program is working fine as long as there is data coming from the other side. But if there is no data the fgets call waits indefinitely without timing out. That is the reason I tried to use socket_set_timeout. Unfortunately i get the message that socket_set_timeout is not part of windows build.

PHP version: 4.1.1
Windows XP using IIS
Installed from the executable download.

Using the set_socket_timeout method causes the following error message to appear in the browser:

Warning: socket_set_timeout() is not supported in this PHP build in c:\inetpub\wwwroot\test.php on line 26

This bug has been fixed in CVS. You can grab a snapshot of the
CVS version at http://snaps.php.net/. In case this was a documentation 
problem, the fix will show up soon at http://www.php.net/manual/.
In case this was a PHP.net website problem, the change will show
up on the PHP.net site and on the mirror sites.
Thank you for the report, and for helping us make PHP better.
