If you have a particular reason to use it then maybe it's OK, but just be aware that it will not exist in future versions of PHP and relying on it is not a good idea. Security, unfortunately, is not as simple as toggling a configuration variable. >> What does the script do if you turn off safe_mode? >> > > it works perfectly Can you post a simple script which demonstrates your problem (the whole script, hopefully as short as you can make it) but which works fine with safe_mode off? Also it would be helpful if you can include the output of phpinfo() both with safe_mode on and with safe_mode off. Regards, Torben
