Steve, thanks for trying, but your code, and my slightly amended code, both
return…
Can’t set end of "<!DOCTYPE html>
<html style=\"height:100%\">
<head><title> 404 Not Found
</title></head>
<body style=\"color: #444; margin:0;font: normal 14px/20px Arial, Helvetica,
sans-serif; height:100%; background-color: #fff;\">
<div style=\"height:auto; min-height:100%; \"> <div style=\"text-align:
center; width:800px; margin-left: -400px; position:absolute; top: 30%;
left:50%;\">
<h1 style=\"margin:0; font-size:150px; line-height:150px;
font-weight:bold;\">404</h1>
<h2 style=\"margin-top:20px;font-size: 30px;\">Not Found
</h2>
<p>The resource requested could not be found on this server!</p>
</div></div></body></html>" to {{"email@hidden"}, {"meSelfSoftWare.com"}}.
What I want is the CONTENT of the file, not its properties, please?
AND, is my saving line correct?
I’m completely guessing, and Shane’s told me ‘DON’T GUESS!’, BUT I CAN’T WORK
THE TERMINOLOGY OUT!.
What I THINK I’m doing wrong is addressing the .txt file in the wrong way.
<p>The resource requested could not be found on this server!</p> I have no idea
what I’m supposed to do, and have read the cURL help and examples over and
over. I just cannot wrap my mind around what I’m doing wrong!
Regards
Santa

I’m deriving the path from this… which is in the same site folder
