You don't have access to anything outside of the webroot? If /home/user/www/ is your webroot, then write them to /home/user/. If you're saying you can't do that and they have to be put under the webroot, then give them .php extensions and make the first line <?php exit(); ?> Then they can't be viewed through the browser, but PHP can still read them (fopen, etc) or they can be opened with text editors. ---John Holmes... -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
