Dd> I disagree with Andrew. In my humble opinion, I don't think you need to duplicate information. Before you decide, have a better viewing of the problem. Dd> Not a good solution for me.

I think a Dd> file extension wouldn't stand in the way (wich I think is what you, Phil, meant by "stored as binary" - no extension) Just check that.

In fact I would store the whole serialized array that is returned by getimagesize() so all info would be available later. -- regards, Tom -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
