Hi, Is there any way to keep a file pointer open after script is finished, so that it can be access later, by passing it through session? Like this: page1.php: <?php session_start(); $fp = fopen("test.php","r"); $data = fread($fp,10); $_SESSION['fp'] = $fp; echo "<a href='page2.php'>Continue</a>"; ?> page2.php: <?php session_start(); $fp = $_SESSION['fp']; $data = fread($fp,10); // Should be bytes 11-20 ?> Thanks, Tijnema -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
