When testing the snapshot, try the new file_get_contents() function too, which is 100% binary safe. $s = file_get_contents(); ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-10-18 03:05:02] mfischer@php.net Please try using this CVS snapshot: http://snaps.php.net/php4-latest.tar.gz For Windows: http://snaps.php.net/win32/php4-win32-latest.zip Ops, wrong quick fix. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-10-18 03:04:43] mfischer@php.net Thank you for taking the time to report a problem with PHP.
