As long as you are talking about straight text, you can do this. The problem is that the target page would allow anyone to write a file to your server (if the link became public).Another thing that you can investigate is rsync, which is a program to keep directories syncronized. I am doing this right now with a large reporting site; the pages are generated on a server inside our network and the updated to the production server. I was not able to get the native NT version working but I am using the CygWin version quite successfully.John-- John Peacock Director of Information Research and Technology Rowman & Littlefield Publishing Group 4720 Boston Way Lanham, MD 20706 301-459-3366 x.5010 fax 301-429-5747------------------------------------------------------------- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list
