Re: Tailing a log file {!?}

Sorry, I should have included this in the first email... Here's my full code. Page is called like this: log.php?open=access.log&len=150 ===================================================== <PRE> <FONT SIZE="2" COLOR="#000000" FACE="Tahoma"> <? echo "<B>Excecuting:</B> tail -n $len /www/hosting/domains/lanolot/logs/$open <BR>"; echo "<I>Displaying the last <B>$len</B> lines of <B>$open</B>...</I><BR><BR><HR><BR>"; exec("tail -n $len /www/hosting/domains/lanolot/logs/$open", $result); foreach ($result as $val) { echo "$val<br>"; } ?> </FONT> </PRE> ===================================================== When I call the page, I get the expected at the top: Excecuting: tail -n 150 /www/hosting/domains/lanolot/logs/error.log Displaying the last 150 lines of error.log... But there's nothing underneath it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

An infinite loop most likely. Remember, $result is an array.
