An example: $handle = fopen("http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.fread.php", "r"); while($line = fread($handle, 255)) { echo "$line"; } fclose($handle); -- Jason Stechschulte jpstech@unoh.edu -- One of the reasons Perl is faster than certain other unnamed interpreted languages is that it binds variable names to a particular package (or scope) at compile time rather than at run time. -- Larry Wall in <199709050035.RAA29328@wall.org>
