Thank you all for your help. I got it working, once.

Right after I made the change and tested it,
everything worked perfect. Then I had a freak nose
bleed- (This has to be my 3rd nose bleed in my life
ever). I frantically starting closing windows and
shells. While in my frantic state, I deleted my php
script I had spent about 30+ hours working on. I
don't back anything up on my test server so it's gone
forever now. My stupidity for not backing up the test
server, so my loss- lesson learned and will not make
again.

....but it did work one time.

thank you again for all the help.
