Thanks Raditha. At least now I know I've been looking in the wrong place! I'll look forward to the perl script to see if it sheds any more light on this situation.
I'm currently running Windoze, but when I boot to Linux later I'll try Khexedit to see what I can come up with.

Unfortunately PHP does not allow access to raw POST data, else this can be debugged by looking at that data. I will mail you (offlist) a small perl script that you can use to write out the POST to a temp file and may be help you get to the bottom of this. > >I just downloaded the XVI32 hex editor, but what should I be looking for >when I open the files and examine the contents? > Khexedit might be installed by default. all the best -- Raditha Dissanayake. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ http://www.radinks.com/sftp/ | http://www.raditha/megaupload/ Lean and mean Secure FTP applet with | Mega Upload - PHP file uploader Graphical User Inteface.
