RE: [PHP] Newbie fopen() HELP..!

I can't help woth the fopen, maybe you don't have the http protocol registered? Your assignments look funny. I don't think I've ever seen error suppression in front of a variable before, it would make more sense to put it on the fread., and you are overwritting your variables the line after setting them. This ... $WindStr = @fread($handle, 93); $WindStr .= @fread($handle, 5); $DirStr = @fread($handle, 5); $DirStr .= @fread($handle, 5); makes more sense to me. Also, shouldn't the ini)set be 1, not "On"? > -----Original Message----- > From: Christian..
