Make sure you don't have any spaces or anything after the EOF on the 'print <<<EOF' line, and, oddly enough, *nothing* after the semicolon on the *last* line. No spaces, no comments, nothing. The first bit I understand. I'm not sure why you're not allowed to have anything after the semicolon at the end. I'm told this is for a reason. Nobody's said what it is. :) -- +----------------------------------------------------------------+ |Torben Wilson <torben@php.net> Netmill iTech| |http://www.coastnet.com/~torben http://www.netmill.fi| |Ph: 1 250 383-9735 torben@netmill.fi| +----------------------------------------------------------------+
