Check out fopen() and header() I'm not sure what Bart is trying to do either, but I suspect it may be to circumvent that annoying "feature" of some web sites in which clicking on a link starts streaming RealVideo to your player in such a way that you can not save the content to disk as a file. I don't know if you *can* circumvent this behavior (it may be built in to some RA protocol or other), but if so I'd certainly like to learn how... Cheerio, Rick Rodgers
