So if anyone can help me or tell > me a better place for my problem I will be really happy The fine manual <http://de.php.net/fread> has a warning (and an example just below that warning): When reading from network streams or pipes, such as those returned when reading remote files or from popen() and proc_open(), reading will stop after a packet is available. This means that you should collect the data together in chunks as shown in the example below. Regards... Michael
