Re: library calls from within php functions

Hi Tony, There's not much we can tell you about this unless you post the rest of the lines of that function. Perhaps you did not include <php.h> ? Note: always prefer this: read(fd, buf, sizeof(buf)); to this: read(fd, buf, 1024); The former is immune to buffer overruns if you change the size of buf at a later date, and is much more readable. --Wez.
