Okay, that does sound more efficient. I'd love to give this a try, but to be completely honest I haven't done much from the shell other than basic commands and managing MySQL. I do know that my host allows me to use crontab, though, and most other common *nix programs.
Could you (or any of the other readers) explain how I would go about using cron or at to do what my function is trying to do? "Chris Hewitt" wrote: > It may well be a DNS problem.
