Ahh, but they are on different webservers.... 
    That's why I mentioned cURL at the very beginning, if it had to be
done as a POST request.
At the moment, I am just using a query string. How long is the limit of the query string?? 
    There is no official limit in the protocol, but you may want to
check out Section 3.2.1 of RFC 2068 for more on that. 
    The limits are in what the client is capable of sending, and what
the server is capable of receiving. A quick S of TFW should give you the information you need regarding PHP and the remote server's configuration.
Incidentally, I did some minor testing on this a few years ago and found the lengths vary greatly between servers. Cheers, tedd -- ------- http://sperling.com http://ancientstones.com http://earthstones.com
