I have a SOAP client that periodically updates a remote server. I call it like so 
my $server = SOAP::Lite                                             
  -> uri('http://www.soaplite.com/duplsvr')                           
+                  
  -> proxy('http://my.ip.com/cgi-bin/server.cgi', timeout => 60);
$result = $server->process($data);

Occasionally, the client can't reach the server and it times out. When this happens it throws an error that crashes the client.

What I want to do is is put $data on a stack for a later try. But in the case of the timeout I don't even get a chance to check for $result->fault before the client crashes. Is there some way to trap the timeout so the client doesn't crash?

TIA......Steve
