Ran into an issue where file() does not open relative file names, for instance: $words_file = "./config/filter.txt"; if (@is_readable($words_file)) { /* Read the file and iterate through the lines. */ $lines = file($words_file); foreach ($lines as $line) { print $line."<BR>"; } } I get: Warning: file(./config/filter.txt) [function.file]: failed to create stream: No such file or directory in /usr/local/www/test.com/horde/lib/Text.php on line 41 Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /usr/local/www/test.com/horde/lib/Text.php on line 42 Yet if I specify the full path to the very same file, it works fine: $words_file = "/usr/local/www/test.com/horde/imp/config/filter.txt"; if (@is_readable($words_file)) { /* Read the file and iterate through the lines. */ $lines = file($words_file); foreach ($lines as $line) { print $line."<BR>"; } } The is_readable sees the file fine, but file itself fails. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=22858&edit=1
