I wrote a script for screen pops from our soft phone that locates a directory listing for the caller but occasionally they get "Can't read input stream" and the rest of the script quits.

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to suppress error the error message and allow the rest of the script to run? Thanks!

$i=0;

    $open = fopen("http://www.411.ca/whitepages/?n=".$_GET['phone'], "r"); 
    $read = fread($open, 9024); 
    fclose($open); 
    eregi("'/(.*)';",$read,$got);
    $tv = ereg_replace('[[:blank:]]',' ',$got[1]);
    $url = "http://www.411.ca/".$tv;
    while ($name=="unknown" && $i < 15) { ## try 15 times before giving up
    $file = @ fopen($fn=$url,"r") or die ("Can't read input stream");
    $text = fread($file,16384);
    if (preg_match('/"name">(.*?)<\/div>/is',$text,$found)) {
            $name = $found[1];
    } 
    if (preg_match('/"phone">(.*?)<\/div>/is',$text,$found)) {
            $phone = $found[1];
    } 
    if (preg_match('/"address">(.*?)<\/div>/is',$text,$found)) {
            $address = $found[1];
    } 
    fclose($file);
    $i++;
    }
