I'm not quite sure I understand exactly what you expect to happen here. You make a request for '/menu.html'. Are you then saying you randomly get given back different output from your PHP? In the above examples, filename has no context, as you're not doing anything with any files in your PHP script. Thanks, Ash http://www.ashleysheridan.co.uk
