Thats for one of the files but it's pretty much the same in all of them. I tried it on my mates server and it all worked ok so i', unsure wat is wrong. - Heres the paste of it: http://pastesite.com/4756

CODE

<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="5">
                <tr>
                
                    <td><?php recentnews(1); ?> </td>
              </tr>
                <tr>
                    <td><?php recentnews(2); ?> </td>
              </tr>
                <tr>
                    <td><?php recentnews(3); ?> </td>
              </tr>
                <tr>
                    <td><?php recentnews(4); ?> </td>
              </tr>
                <tr>
                    <td><?php recentnews(5); ?> </td>

It would seem that removing the fclose() command from all my files is doing the trick

But that's bad resource handling. fclose doesn't expect a file, it expects a resource. Could have found this in the manual.

Try fclose($news);
