In other words, a web browser. I know that this is possible because as far back as three years ago I was getting spam that included a screenshot of my site. I thought it was rather cool- the screenshot showed the site optimized for a 1024- width screen and I had at that point only ever seen my own site on a 800*600 15 inch monitor. You would probably need to combine about 3 tools to do this: a browser, a screen shot utility, and THEN php. php cannot transform the html code into a 'webpage'. Unless, hehehe, you want to write a browser in php. Dotan Cohen http://English-Lyrics.com/ http://Song-Lyriks.com/
