Just a quick note on that, Rene.... > $result = array ( "matches" => > array ( 0 => "$sometext %\r\n", If you want to have the dollar sign included, use single quotes. Double-quoted things translate the data enclosed within them, so "$sometext" would translate that into the value of the variable (or null with E_NOTICE if it's uninstantiated/undefined). Conversely, '$sometext' would be the literal $sometext. -- </Daniel P.
