ID: 24086 Updated by: sniper@php.net Reported By: danfratus at attbi dot com -Status: Open +Status: Feedback Bug Type: Filesystem function related Operating System: Windows XP Professional PHP Version: 4.3.2 New Comment: Exactly what is the bug here? file_exists("...") ?? or what? (that returns FALSE..) Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-06-08 17:41:14] danfratus at attbi dot com <? if (file_exists("$file") && $file != "." && $file != "..") { $file = join('',file($file)); echo "$file"; } ?> Ok the glitch is this: if $file is "." or ".." the script is fine, no errors are generated, but, when $file is "..." or "......." or "..................", etc. then for some reason PHP reconizes this as a directory, yet it can't be included therefore generating this error: --- Warning: file(...) [function.file]: failed to create stream: No such file or directory in F:\server\bug.php on line 4 Warning: join() [function.join]: Bad arguments. in F:\server\bug.php on line 4 --- This "bug" isn't going to crash the entire internet or anything, but it should be fixed. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=24086&edit=1
