You could do something like this: $ip = "10.030.88.24"; //example $url = "http://www.arin.net/cgi-bin/whois.pl?queryinput=$ip";; $fp = @fopen($url, 'r') or die("Cannot Open");
Then, parse the $fp with fgets, or something to find the string you are after. -- Gaylen [EMAIL PROTECTED] Home http://www.gaylenandmargie.com PHP KISGB v2.22 Guestbook http://www.gaylenandmargie.com/phpwebsite "Michael J.
