Hi Alan & Everybody who wasted time to read my 1st Letter,

SORRY guys, I do deserve the scorn but it was genuine mistake I didn't want to post garbage bugging other people. I was under the impression that I was mailing to the HELP DESK( nonliving resp system).

If you can, Please do help me in my real PHP issue:
===================================================
I am trying to print a remote header menu in a html page without frames.
The client side JS in located in this htm. ( http://www.dtcc.com/ThoughtLeadership/menu.htm ) I tried both INCLUDE, REQUIRE with no avail. I am a complete novice beginner so can anyone help me a bit please?

The code I tried:
==============================

</HEAD>
<BODY BGCOLOR=#FFFFFF background="images/bgb.gif" LEFTMARGIN=0 TOPMARGIN=0
MARGINWIDTH=0 MARGINHEIGHT=0>
<table width="778" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
 <tr>
   <td background="images/1_12.gif">
<?php

   $filename = 'http://www.dtcc.com/ThoughtLeadership/menu.htm';
   print getRandomLine($filename);

   function getRandomLine($filename)
   {
   global $errors;

     if (file_exists($filename)) {

       mt_srand ((double) microtime() * 1000000);
       $lines = file($filename);

       $line_number = mt_rand(0,sizeof($lines)-1);
       return $lines[$line_number];

     } else {
       $errors['getRandomLine'][] = "File: $filename not found";
       return FALSE;
     }
   }
 ?>
</td>
 </tr>
 <tr>
   <td width="778" background="images/1_12.gif">&nbsp;</td>

...& On it Goes
============================

Can you please let me know why can't print the remote HTM in the current page (Though it is in a different domain)?

Thanks,
Chirantan

Just out of curiosity, why are you just printing a random line from the file?

Then the next question is do you have your error reporting turned up:

error_reporting(E_ALL);

and display_errors = On in php.ini, only for a development server, or at least a log file to look at, for a production server?

I'm going to assume that you've checked the source of your script output and the random line isn't where you thout it would be?

The best thing to do would be to just print out the lines/files you are trying to get, without the rest of the HTML, to see what your getting from just the part your having trouble with.
