DaniWeb IT Discussion Community - client server communication problem in CSocket program

Hi all,

My csocket program is as follow. The program run properly but the server don't wait the message from client and the client also don't send. Can anyone help me what's the problem in client server communciation API. Thanks a lot in advance.
