I should have said that your example doesn't work on linux with mod_perl with sfio-enabled perl, since I've tried it and it didn't work. That's why I've assumed that it's not MacOSX problem. I really didn't have a chance to investigate why it doesn't work. I've just tried other alternatives which worked so I've posted them, since I thought that it was important to you to have a working solution. Feel free to debug the whole thing and post the details of what exactly doesn't work and if possible how to fix that. __________________________________________________________________ Stas Bekman JAm_pH ------> Just Another mod_perl Hacker http://stason.org/ mod_perl Guide ---> http://perl.apache.org mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://use.perl.org http://apacheweek.com http://modperlbook.org http://apache.org http://ticketmaster.com
