PEL actually has a place where it accumulates stuff (and so leaks memory if one isn't aware of it): the Pel::$exceptions array in which it saves not-so-dangerous exceptions for later inspection by the programmer. You can clear the list with Pel::clearExceptions(). I am not sure that this idea of saving exceptions is such a brilliant idea anyway... I just wanted to make it easy to parse somewhat broken images. Pel::$exceptions is the only place I can think of where PEL would accumulate stuff. > As I don't have the time at work to fix PEL, I have no way but to > manipulate my pictures in blocks of about 10K pics.

I will stick around and try to help, but I am shifting my focus away from PHP. I am only hoping that I have brought the project to a usable and maintainable point so that someone else with more motivation can take over. You are most welcome to get SVN access, then you could apply your patch to get the WinXP strings working. I'm sure a lot of Windows users would love that. -- Martin Geisler --- <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> --- http://mgeisler.net
