Jurian, I running the last version of apache2 ( 2.2.16-6+squeeze4) and i get no errors with this function.. Can you show the line on your code that is getting error ? What is showing on the error log of apache? Try this: var_dump(getimagesize("http://www.debian.org/Pics/openlogo-50.png")); And give me the return.. -- William Felipe Welter ------------------------------ Consultor em Tecnologias Livres william.welter@4linux.com.br www.4linux.com.br
