It may be obvious to you that you don't want that, but it's not to anybody else :-) Use r+ and fseek to the end of the file. You can use PHP's filesize (filelength?) function to find out where that is. I think a+ is only if you are "promising" not to go backwards into the old data... Maybe it's for some kind of OS optimization or something... -- Like Music? http://l-i-e.com/artists.htm
