You may need to stop Apache and then restart it; you haven't changed Apache's configuration you've changed PHP's, so you have to ensure that the PHP module is unloaded and then re-loaded to give effect to the change. The simplest way I've found of doing this is to stop and restart Apache. John P. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.mdt.net.au/~john Debian Linux admin & support:technical services
