Hi there,
I have written (bit of a newbie) a script
that adds user information to a flatfile, and sends username and passwords to new members
after leaving a card processors secure server.
All the modules look fine and it worked.
But it only works sometimes?!?
Can it be timing out sometimes due to speed of connection?
Is it a limit on my server?
I can't explain it, Can anyone help?
Any suggestions?

When you say "it sends" the user name and pass to new users do you mean through mail?

If so the mail program might be overloaded from other users on the server.

um, i'd say the problem is probably ur server/script.

if it also only works sometimes for other people then it's one of the above for sure, script takes up too many resources or the server can't handle much.

Thanks for responding!
By send I did mean email.
I actually talked to the card processors and
they finally admitted they had a problem with their server,
after hours of being unsure of my script and
going through it module by module.
Anyway I appreciate your help and will definitely go through the forums and return the favour.
