I am not a PHP expert by any means but this works. I get the correct output=

I actually print the filehandle in the makelist.phtml and it is blank. Foll=

I also test it the way you originally suggeted and it also works. As matter=
of fact, it is a better solution (less messy).<br>
<br>
This change also apply to the palmexport.phtml (see diff_palmexport.out fil=

httpd run as user apache so if the temp file is not own by apache you get t=

<br>><br>> Hi folks,<br>><br>> This is my first time on the mai=
ling list, so here's a brief intro.<br>> My name is Philip Ward. I'm one=
of the Unix admins at the University of<br>> Stirling in central Scotla=
nd. I've been doing this for nearly two months,<br>> previously having b=
een a developer doing all sorts of things from Unix<br>> daemons to embe=
dded C on microcontrollers with some Oracle and Visual stuff<br>> in bet=
ween. I've been a Unix user since 1992 and a GNU/Linux home user<br>> si=
nce 1998, having started hacking since receiving a BBC Micro in 1983.<br>&g=
t; I used to use Rolodap 0.9 at home. It was a pain to setup, but a joy to =
use<br>> once working. When I moved things around at home I tried to ins=
tall Rolodap<br>> on the new server, but gave up and instead got ldap-ab=
ook working, and am<br>> still using it at home.<br>> My interest in =
Rolodap was rekindled when a friend asked me for a contacts<br>> databas=
e that supported contact categorisation. I reckoned that Rolodap was<br>>=
; what he needed. I spent a bit more time trying to beat Rolodap into<br>&g=
t; submission and finally got it working.<br>> This friend wants a searc=
hable email audit trail, so I may end up adding<br>> this functionality =
into Rolodap and sending in the patches. If anyone has<br>> any ideas on=
how to add this then I'd love to hear them.<br>> I'm thinking that the =
best way would be to make Rolodap do ALL the emailing<br>> (so remove th=
e mailto: link from contact display and send all emails<br>> through the=
rolodap email client) and then record all transactions in the<br>> dire=
ctory. Another way of doing it (probably more complex but will enable<br>&g=
t; users to use their preferred email client) would be to launch the defaul=
t<br>> email client but add ro...@ho... in the cc list. A mail r=
eader<br>> could then received the message and feed it into the director=
y.<br>> Whaddya think?<br>><br>> Right, now for a wee gift. I noti=
ced that Mailing list generation is<br>> broken. Rolodap generates the f=
iles in the temp directory<br>> (/var/www/rolodap/temp/ in my case) but =
when you then click to download the<br>> file it<br>> passes /var/www=
/rolodap/temp/filename.csv to the browser when it should<br>> pass http:=
//host.domain/rolodap/temp/filename.csv to the browser. The<br>> attache=
d patch adds TEMPURL to rolodap.conf and uses TEMPURL in generating<br>>=
the url for the file download.<br>> Please accept my apologies if this =
has already been fixed in CVS.<br>><br>> Bye for now,<br>><br>>=
