but this is where you are (at least partially) wrong. if safe_mode is set, you are still able to open an uploaded file. however, from a brief code inspection, it looks to me like you may not be able to open it if open_basedir is set. assuming i've read things correctly, this is a arguably a bug, not a reason to introduce a new function. (it also looks to me like safe_mode_include_dir and open_basedir may not get along nicely.) jim -- PHP Development Mailing List <http://www.php.net/> To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
