It is Godaddy and they usually keep everything up to date. I spoke with their technical people and they said it is a security thing and they suggested cURL as an option. I have looked around the web and I am sure that a script using curl would be very popular. If you do a google search "can't access dmoz fopen" You will see some of the problems people are having. This is the category I want to display. http://www.dmoz.org/Business/International_Business_and_Trade/ Thanks again. Kelly Thanks,

I do have problem however and I think I am not alone in my seacrhing of the forums. My host does not allow fopen commands and so the system must use cURL for it to work. Have you ever heard of this? I have found many sites about it and parts of a script but not enough for me to figure it out or use it. I want to import a very specific part of the DMOZ and wrap it into my page. Please let me know if you can do this. Thnka you, Kelark Hello,
