Using file system to store read/write information like this will be a severe security risk for most hosting situations. As Herman pointed out the user id that the php engine runs under (may be different than web server when php is run as cgi) will have to have read/write access to the file data store. In many shared hosting this means that your information file will be read/writable for all other sites hosted on your box. Craig On Oct 21, 2005, at 2:33 PM, Herman Webley wrote:
