I had no problem. And I have no book about PHP :). I use manual, because it's the best book. I looked through some books and find that the PHP manual is MUCH better. r> Last question: r> Is ther any function to make the program "sleep" for 10 seconds or so? or r> does anybody have a function that does this? It's called sleep() :) Once again, use manual. Espacially if you work on Windows. Then just download the manual in CHM.It includes index and search capabilities. -- Best regards, Olexandr mailto:supaboy@i.com.ua
