Hi there:

The file path is correct.

I know that the PHP script is creating the files, because I have 
deleted all the files, and they get created.  So, yeah, I'm 100% 
certain of that.  This also validates the prior point, about the path.

The PHP parser is giving me the warning even though it is creating 
the files...how and why can it do this?

I mean, I could suppress its output by prepending the '@' sign, but 
I'd like to be notified of REAL issues in the script...

Marc
