The "if($result)" should really check that the $result is not a SOAP Fault, but I'm not sure how to do that - suggestions please? :-) It may be better to send the image as a MIME attachment - not sure what the correct procedure is for this. - Mike Carter ________________________________________________________________________ This e-mail has been scanned for all viruses by Star Internet.
