johnali3n Posted October 9, 2006 Share Posted October 9, 2006 Hi,I am not sure I am on the right lines here but I want to display the contents of some text files using PHP on a web page. I have tried mapping a drive directly to the text files, so they have their own path instead of a network name, I have tried using a network name and this doesn't work either.Is the only way to copy the files to a local directory and then display them - This I can get to work quite easily.Thanks - Any help would be great,John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zq29 Posted October 9, 2006 Share Posted October 9, 2006 Is this a Windows network? Could you not map a network drive to the target machines directory holding the files, and then access them with the mapped drive letter? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnali3n Posted October 10, 2006 Author Share Posted October 10, 2006 I tried that but an error message appears saying "permission denied". The folder has "Everyone" - full permission, set so it can't be an authentication problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
