In fact, var_dump($s) should tell you that $s is the empty string. So, fread() is reading nothing forever, rather than to return FALSE as the manual page states. Anyway, in my opinion fopen should fail immediately trying to open the current directory, in the first place. Regards, ___ /_|_\ Umberto Salsi \/_\/ www.icosaedro.it
