I use apache for that sort of thing: .htaccess: RewriteEngine on RewriteCond todaysphoto.jpeg !-s RewriteRule picktodaysphoto.php "picktodaysphoto.php" selects the photo of the day, writes it as 'todaysphoto.jpeg', and then redirects to it. 'todaysphoto.jpeg' is then deleted once a day by cron. /Per Jessen, Zürich -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
