Finally, if there are no files with that format in /tmp, how will this work? Or is that how unix socket streams are supposed to work? I'm ignorant in this area... But it seems to me that if you try to open a file that's not there, you SHOULD get FALSE back. :-) > it always returns false for some reason on this server. And what, if anything, are in $errno and $errstr? You've put them in there, you might as well use them :-) -- Like Music? http://l-i-e.com/artists.htm -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
