Like I said, find another method. Try writing a batch file that will FTP them to your server and have a cron script process them. -- ---John Holmes... Amazon Wishlist: www.amazon.com/o/registry/3BEXC84AB3A5E/ php|architect: The Magazine for PHP Professionals – www.phparch.comThe only part i am having trouble with is making the remote script automatically look into the local computer's hard drive and grab the .txt file.<snip>The problem with the code above is the path to the file does not show up in the <input type='file'>, and the user would still need to click on the 'submit button' to upload the file.You're out of luck - for security reasons, the file input widget is intentionally resistant to scripting/styling.
