Hi there Daixiwen,

Thank you for the reply. I have since decided to not try a php install in this project, no need to over complicate things. And I have no idea how to use linux - I have been using windows since 3.1 came out ;-p though linux is more stable, I am just simply stuck in my ways of a familiar GUI.

For now I just need to put custom web content into the read only zip file and get that onto the flash device. Basically just some simple links & open & display text files etc on the screen, then possibly expand this to holding hex files for use in pic re-programming, whether this is possible or not though I am not sure, it's just a long term option that I am looking at for doing software upgrade's to IC's/MCU's over the internet or intranet from the Ethernet port.

All good fun learning though!

Any further advice or pointer's would be welcome.

Cheers,

MRb
