Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-05-14 22:39:43] my dot email dot subscriptions at gmail dot com Thanks for your guidance, you have saved me a lot of work. As you suggested, I tried it with another browser(s) (opera, chrome & IE) and it works as it should so the problem is browser (Firefox) related. I have one more favor to ask, what can I do, and how, to be able to report this behavior to Firefox after a thorough investigation?. Thank you very much for your help and guidance. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-05-14 21:52:53] jani@php.net And accessing your test shows it only creates one file for me. So it's propably some braindead browser issue you're having. (I tested with Chrome..) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-05-14 21:50:50] jani@php.net Please check your access log for this test script being accessed. I bet you get 2 requests to it instead of one when you access it with browser. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-05-14 20:12:56] my dot email dot subscriptions at gmail dot com I just tested a special script that resembles the working script in two forms. When running the script using the browser, it does create two files. Then when using CLI, it creates only one. To see the test, you can use this URL: http://www.web-carlos.com/Testing/TxtIndex.php This will give you back the name of the created file, lets say: 'TxtIndex11.txt' to see the problem use the browser and ask for both files like this: http://www.web-carlos.com/WebTempFiles/TxtIndex11.txt http://www.web-carlos.com/WebTempFiles/TxtIndex12.txt Both files will have the same content. To see the whole script used, browse this url: http://www.web-carlos.com/Testing/TxtIndex.txt I have also place a phpinfo if you want to see the server configuration, just browse: http://www.web-carlos.com/Testing/phpinfo.php Believe it or not, but it does create two files using the browser, of course I can't use CLI on the server but I do, at my development pc. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-05-14 17:19:39] pajoye@php.net hi, I don't think you are really using the right code to test. there is no way that: $fp = fopen('a1.txt', 'x'); if (!$fp) die("cannot open a1.txt\n"); fclose($fp); produce two files, a1.txt and a2.txt. Same for all other examples. Please run it in the CLI if you are not sure what files you are running via apache. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
