Thanks for the reply. It certainly could be due to an upgrade. I wrote my code a while ago, then let it sit. A few days ago I tried to use it again. I first had to deal with a change in the way call by reference worked in php. (I had to delete the '&' from some function calls.) Did that correspond to the 5.3 -> 5.4 upgrade? I will look at the links you provided. Thanks again. Ray -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
