In the copy() function, I'm using the embedded variable method (a string using double quotes will evaluate the variables at run time). In the echo statements, I'm not using concatenation as, theoretically, it should be faster as the echo statement will not need to first build the concatenated string before echoing it. It will just push the values out the to the web server. I think. I've not done any metric testing on that. As for copying a file TO a http URL, you need to obey the rules of http. CURL or FTP will be the protocols of choice here, though you do have the option of using a stream context to wrap the file_put_contents() into a POST form to the site (similar to CURL in some ways). -- Richard Quadling Twitter : EE : Zend : PHPDoc @RQuadling : e-e.com/M_248814.html : bit.ly/9O8vFY : bit.ly/lFnVea -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
