Hi Aaron, because you are accessing a file via PHP from your *local* file system it doesn't matter if the directory is protected or outside of the webroot. PHP has access to the file (if read privilege is set). The protection is just to deny public access. Take a look here: http://pear.php.net/manual/en/package.http.http-download.intro.php Hope this helps, Torsten -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
