I know that if you send a HTTP/1.1 then a lot of servers send the data in chunks, thus your retrieval code needs to be different. If it is HTTP/1.1 try using HTTP/1.0 instead. > $this->errstr="Write error"; > return; > } else { > > $ipd = ""; > while($data=fread($fp, 32768)) { Have you tried smaller requests mabey 512? although that shouldn't matter, but you might be able to see if it is getting data back at all. > $ipd.=$data; > } HTH, Curt -- "I used to think I was indecisive, but now I'm not so sure."
