i tryed it and it ended up having an error that was caused originally by a lack of a $ on the 3rd line variable... after i fixed that it said wrong perameter count for fopen() on the third line, and "Warning: Supplied argument is not a valid File-Handle resource" for the remaining lines below that in that block of code. i'm sorry, i'm kinda new to this : ( "Stewart Taylor" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... > You need to copy the contents of the current file. > Then recreate the file by writing the new message then writing back the > original contents. > > e.g. > $fname = basename($PHP_SELF).
