RE: [PHP] remote call - no return

You are returning ID found on the last line of the file since you loop through the entire file and then once the file's EOF has been reached, you return id. Perhaps the last line is blank.

Yuip! It is i again! For those that see this the first time: i am calling a remote script, feed it a bunch variables and need to catch a returning ID variable (a tracking ID). I am not getting squat back! Why? there is the function that does the call: [php] function call_remote($remote_path) { if ($f = fopen($remote_path,'r')) //call to the gateway script, passing vars { while(!feof($f)) { $line = fgets($f,100); //supposed to get the id back? $id = $line; } } return $id; fclose($f); } [php] Please! someone tell me how to do that! it can't be that difficult?! peace Thomas -- +++ GMX - Mail, Messaging & more http://www.gmx.net +++ Bitte lächeln!
