Dear Thor, Thank you for your response. To answer your question: I have a script that can make certain modifications to a webpage, but the file name has to be "hard coded" into the script before it is run. What I am trying to do is make the script run on any webpage of the users choice, by using another script to select the choice to be made by the user, then plugging it into the main script before it is run. (Am I making sense here?) The user selects the page to be modified in the first script (Got that working just fine) and then plugs the resulting filename to the actual modifying script before it is run as: $filename = "webpagex.html". Thanks for your help. I have some things now to work with and will plod along to see where they lead. With best regards, Donnie
