Hi David, Thanks for your prompt reply.

From what I can tell though (from the PHP Manual) these should be used together for the desired effect. Unfortunately, the example is written assuming that you know something about programming. > using implode to put the contents of the array in a string which you > can then echo Wasn't able to get this to work either. I think that I was initially stumped with how to turn this into an array. I tried to involve a counter variable, but my limited knowledge of arrays got in my way. > appending $buffer to itself/another variable which you can then echo > outside the loop Actually, this is much like the solution that my friend suggested above... So I guess I don't need any further help with this option... Thanks for furthering my education.. Mike -- Mike A.
