If it's a PHP file sitting on a web server I doubt you will get at the actual source using that method. Usually when you want to show the source of a PHP file you configure the web server to show .phps files as PHP source. For Apache a line like this works: AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps Also.. I'd just download the class file and read it from the local file system. There's a lot of overhead in including a PHP file remotely everytime your script runs. Even if you just cache the file every so often it'd still be way better than a direct call every time. I could be wrong but I doubt the class file is changing so much so often that you need a realtime include() like that. -- Greg Donald Zend Certified Engineer http://destiney.com/
