REFERRER isn't always set, so that may be the problem.
Try just a simple HTML page that has a link to a PHP page that echo's
out $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERRER'].

Thanks Keven. Didn't see that.
?php
$line = AU: Tomlinson,-Brian;
$AU = filter_strings(AU: ,$line);
function filter_strings($tofilter,$line){
if(eregi('^'.$tofilter.' (.*)$',$line,$m)) {
$filtered=$m[1];
return $filtered;
}
}

$contents = fopen (/home/pathto/file.txt, r);
if ($contents){echotextarea$contents/textarea;}
else{echo no contents there;}
Questions:
What is the use of @fopen?
Does anyone see a better way?

Three advantages I like:
1- no more cgiwrap.
2- thus I can work in any directory and am not bound to cgi-bin
3- Sheer ease of coding. A lot easier to learn, it's open-source and newsgroups are
more helpful. Perl groups are less helpful, programmer centred and not newbie-friendly.
Just my 2¢

If you switch over, will you be able to port your database?
Does PHP use less system resources than CGI on a server?
I have a bulletin board which is incredibly active, but there is a PHP
sister to it.
Again, when coding for a BB, I appreciate not being bound to work in /cgi-bin/

Ok, how about this? What about error checking if the file contains something as I
include below? Is that enough?

What about error checking if the file contains something as I include below? Is that
enough? Is this the right way?
?php
$filename = /usr/local/something.txt;
$handle = fopen ($filename, r);
$contents = fread ($handle, filesize ($filename));
Instead of using fread, I want to upload a *.txt file using:
input type=file name=txt_file /
and display it in a textarea. Where do I go now? Specifically, how do I get $contents?
Thanks,
John

I need to upoload a local text file into memory using:
input type=\file\ name=\filename\ /
The script below will only work if I am using my localhost.
Any ideas?

You are going to need to start a session.

The idea was to see if $variable was in the session. If it was, use the session
variable. I was passing a lot of variables through input type=hidden
