If I understand it correctly, you can't keep the files outside the docroot if you're using mod_php b/c the web server itself is what fetches the file (therefore it needs to be in the docroot). But mod_php is faster than CGI PHP and can handle more simultaneous requests. Right? Erik ---- Erik Price Web Developer Temp Media Lab, H.H.
