Ahhh. If that is the case, streams has a "must seek" flag that will cause the "includee" to be fully downloaded to a temporary file, and then return a handle to the temporary file.
There might be a slight delay for streams opened in this way while the content is downloaded initially, but at least it would work (and would take very little effort to get it working). A better approach would be to fix the flexer and expand on the zend_filehandle idea so that it could operate using a callback to stream in data; this could also be useful for embedding ZE in applications that operate using virtual filesystems. Perhaps this should be a goal for ZE2/PHP 5? --Wez. On 18/09/02, "Markus Fischer" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > That would be ueberkewl.
