At first it said that i did not have access to the file, so i allowed read-only in the permissions, and then it said resource id #2. This also happens when opening a url Thanks in advance Reproduce code: --------------- LOCAL FILE CODE: <?php $file = fopen('C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\test.txt', 'r'); echo $file; ?> URL CODE: <?php $file = fopen('http://www.google.com', 'r'); echo $file; ?> Expected result: ---------------- it opens the contents of the file or url i type in which the browser would display, because the contents are html tags... Actual result: -------------- resource id #2 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=40851&edit=1
