When I do: print_r( $_SERVER ) both of the above print out the site name and not the host name. For example, the site name is 'mysite.mydomain.com' and the servername is 'machinebob'. Each of the above print out 'mysite.mydomain.com' and not 'machinebob', which is what I was expecting. thnx, Chris ________________________________________________________________________ This message has been checked for all known viruses by the CitC Virus Scanning Service powered by SkyLabs.
