I can save you a lot of trouble, you are sending more than 2040+ characters (almost 2048) without a newline. I resolved this in my send2blogger program (it's perl). See: http://www.linuxha.com/other/send2blogger/index.html It Perl but I think I did a good job of explaining it in the code. I hope this helps. Oh, it's GPL I should put that up there. -- Linux Home Automation Neil Cherry [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.linuxha.com/ Main site http://linuxha.blogspot.com/ My HA Blog Author of: Linux Smart Homes For Dummies _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
