I am going to be looking at the code soon to try and get a handle on it. At this point I do not know where it is coming from but I should be able to examine the variables that get sent to the server and see where in the browser/php/OS interaction the thing is occurring. I'll let you know. I like allowing users to name files as they will and test all my scripts that handle file names to make sure the handle spaces well but should probably check for a few boneheaded things like that. A little javascript goes a long way in these sort of situations :) Bret -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
