I’ve been using the get_meta_tags() & get_headers() PHP functions, and need to set a timeout value in case the website is slow or unresponsive. Does anyone know how to do it?

You should be able to influence this (as it’s via URL wrappers) with the default_socket_timeout
ini setting.
Try either setting it in the php.ini
file or by doing something like
ini_set('default_socket_timeout', 10);
to set a 10 sec timeout (the default value is 60)
