Hi, I have seen this functionality in a PERL program/script and would like to do the same thing...but in php. The way the script worked was, you give it a url: http://somesite.com/pics-and-movies.html pics-and-movies.html (the above example page) would contain something like: <html> <body> <a href=pic1.jpg> pic 1</a> <a href=pic2.jpg> pic 2</a><br> ... <a href=mgp1.mpg> mpg 1</a> <a href=mpg2.mpg> mpg 2</a><br> </body> </html> the scipt would find ONLY the links pointing to either a .jpg or a .mpg and then display the size of each. This is how far I have come: 1: via fopen download the entire page (done) 2: scan the page for all where href ends with .jpg or mpg (cant work out logic for this) 3: send the names and url to a function to get the sizes of each (did this with help from the php manual! yeahhh!!) biggest problem I have come accross is that the link can be written like this <a href='pic.jpg'> or <a href="pic.jpg"> or <a href=pic.jpg> or <a class='blah' href='pic.jpg'> etc HOW are these guys doing it? anybody? (I think I need regex here...but dont know regex :-(( ) Thanks, Mag ===== ------ - The faulty interface lies between the chair and the keyboard. - Creativity is great, but plagiarism is faster! - Smile, everyone loves a moron. :-) __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
