Now that is an idea that didn't occur to me. And since php 4.2.3 may have been buggy then obviously the fix is to upgrade to 4.3 and rewrite it the way you folks suggest. Thanks for that answer, a much more mature one than RTFM. Hence this isn't bogus but an actual bug that was in 4.2.3. And the patch is to make sure the code is written correctly. Thus one last question, looking at the code I initially posted, what would be your suggestion if I may ask specifically tailored to my problem? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-02-11 18:15:22] wez@php.net "Warning: fopen() expects parameter 1 to be string" Now read the manual for fopen -> parameter 1 needs to be a string. You are passing a resource. The fact that this "worked" for you in 4.2.3 indicates a bug in 4.2.3 that has been fixed in 4.3. Your supposed temporary file name would be a string "Resource id #4", which isn't a very good temporary file name. You describe the expected behaviour of PHP, your script is broken, therefore this is a user error, and thus a bogus report. Now, please leave us in peace to fix real bugs. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-02-11 18:08:39] laudanp@yahoo.com Assure you no user error. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-02-11 18:01:44] wez@php.net User error.
