I will try again: In a program or script, I would like to call a routine, written in PHP, or something else that would start a browser, in which I can look for a file. Once the file is found, I will enter on this file or click on it, which will result in a returnvariable in the calling program. This returnvariable contains the name of the file,including his path, p.e. "/home/roland/Docs/NameOfFile". Suppose you have a program, which let you enter all data about a car. One of the fields is the name of picture of the car, with full path. So, wenn one enters in this field, it will start the calling routine, opening a browser, enabling one to look up the file and transfer the path/filename. This routine is done on your linux desktop when you start a new launcher. You can enter the full path + filename or start a browser. The same thing is done when you print to a file, instead of a printer. I hope this is clear enough. Thank you for your patience. Roland Brouwers C.A.T. bvba Antwerp-Belgium roland@xxxxxx
