Does anyone have a solution for an Do you mean you have a page, say todays_mailer.html and you always want it to have the latest one. Or you want each mailer to have it's own page? Or do you want one script to list the mailers in order or date and then when clicked display the contents? Let em know and I'll try to help you out. One thing that may help is to use better dates in the file names :: 020103 for feb 1, 2003 Why you ask? 'Daily Mailer 11103' Is that January 11th ot Novemebr 1st? But if it was 011103 or 110103 you'd know. If you can't tell the difference then the script won't be able to either. But if you can tell, then it'll be easier to make the script handle it.
