In script2 you have the user responding in the middle of execution - this is not possible. PHP runs a script and returns the output to the client. The user then takes action which may cause another PHP script to be executed. There is no way to pause execution of a web-based PHP script and wait for a user action. In what you've given us above I'm unclear on how script1 and script2 interact with each other. Can you elaborate? -Stuart -- Stuart Dallas 3ft9 Ltd http://3ft9.com/
