Hola The file download from the URL http://php.net/dochowto does not appear to be properly archived. On my RedHat Linux box, tar claims that howto.html.tar is not a valid tar file. This happens whether I 'tar -zxf howto.html.tar.gz' or if I gunzip first then 'tar -xf howto.html.tar'. On Windows, WinZip 8.1 claims that howto.html.tar, after extracting it from the gzip file, is not a valid archive file. WinZip 8.1 claims to be able to handle tar files (although I've never seen it handle one before. :) I tried downloading a fresh copy several times via lynx (on Linux) and IE 6.0 on Windows. I figure something got messed up when the file was made. :) Thanks, everyone. -Roy --- This mail has been scanned for viruses by AVG. Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com).
