Hi All, When i grab the file extensions i usually go: <?php $str_ext = strtolower (strrchr ($str_file, '.')); //strtolower is not necessary but is handy for pattern matching echo $str_ext; // example .txt, .html, .gz etc.... ?> This won't work with .tar.gz, tar.bz2 etc.... but .gz should tell you plenty. Hope that helps. -Adam -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.filetype.php http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+29414 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+29414 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+29414
