Hi there, Thanks for the below, but I'll try to explain it a bit better. I don't have access to the ASP server, it's a general server setup for companies, to query their server you must use the ?pid=uniquecompanynumber as it tracks your IP to make sure the correct server is connecting. Anyway, what I need is to be able to query this server and get the url response ONLY, in other words, when it sends a response back I need to pick up what their URL and any additional values IN their url are, and not the body of the page itself. Does that make more sense? I didn't get much sleep last night so hard to express what I mean. Chris Anyway first you have to translate your problem to us. In plain english. But I have spare time, so.. here is the solution for your problem, as I understood it. from php <?php $f = file("http://myserver.com/index.asp?pid=1111"); print_r($f); ?> In ASP you take the pid do what you want to it and then <% Response.Write( myResult ) %> The myResult is what the php will be printing and the value you can use.
