First I wrote my script using the fancy proc_open() before I discovered my PHP was not at the necessary level. Now I have to change it to use a temporary file for either the input or the output. Then I started to write a version using tmpfile() only to discover it doesn't give me the file _name_ so that I can put that name in my command as the standard input redirect. For that purpose, if you don't have proc_open() available for bidirectional piping, it appears that tmpnam() is the right approach. -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.tmpfile.php http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+31219 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+31219 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+31219
