Do you really need a timer, or do you just want to check something every second or so? If the latter, then something like this would do it: from time import time INTERVAL = 1.0 RUN = True while RUN: # Get a time in the future. T = time() + INTERVAL # Serve requests until then. while time() < T: server.handle_request() # Check whatever. if check(): # Do something, for example, stop running. RUN = False HTH, ~Simon -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
