Thanks Jeff,Looking at the XML Feed format on SF's site, it used that example too, so I guess I got conFUZED!
From the SF site ...
"This is a REQUIRED parameter for XML Feed and Text Feed. The value for the parameter is the IP address of the person who performs the search. On most systems this is the REMOTE_ADDR parameter that comes with the HTTP request. ip=1.1.1.1"
You'd think that they would say, ip=$id so us newbies might have a crack at understanding it. LOL
Thanks Again!
