Why would I want to do that? I'm pretty new at the cgi/mime stuff, so I'm not sure how that all works together. In this case I'm just dynamically creating a web page in html (or text for testing purposes). Thanks for the info on the T, though I'd be interested in knowing exactly what it does. How could a hacker root my machine if I didn't have the -T option set? - B -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
