Many thanks tho .. let me know if you know > how to stop the warnings :-) If you want to stop the warnings and verify that data exists, you can just modify that code like so: <?php $myFileLast = "http://www.isawit.com/ffindex.php"; $theDataLast = (strlen($tmpData = @file_get_contents($myFileLast)) > 0) ? $tmpData : sprintf("File not found."); ?> Then you can modify it to read generated error pages (such as Apache's stock 404 page) through a simple regexp or other method to verify that the file is what you expect it to be. -- </Daniel P.
