How are you going to display the thumbnail? If it's going to be generated server-side there is no way to do it without uploading the original(!). Otherwise you would have to use some client-side processing (java/javascript ?), in which case there is no need to 'pause' the script. -- Jason Wong -> Gremlins Associates -> www.gremlins.biz Open Source Software Systems Integrators * Web Design & Hosting * Internet & Intranet Applications Development * ------------------------------------------ Search the list archives before you post http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=php-general ------------------------------------------ /* It's very inconvenient to be mortal -- you never know when everything may suddenly stop happening. */
