In the context of a webserver/browser scenario, PHP will only be able to tell you about the webserver, as it is a server-side technology. Nothing about PHP 'runs' in the browser. In other words, you can probably get all the information you want about the SERVER's network drive names, and display that on the user's browser, but you will not be able to use PHP to get ANY info about the users's drive names and send it back to the server. For that, IMO, you will need Activex or a Java applet. JM -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
