Bug #808 Updated: Strange/confusing output from tempnam

ID: 808 Updated by: rasmus Reported By: jesusmc@scripps.edu Status: Closed Bug Type: Misbehaving function Assigned To: Comments: PHP's tempnam() function is simply a frontend to the standard libc tempnam() function. Check your system's tempnam man page for more info. You can use tempnam() to generate a unique filename that can be used anywhere in the filesystem. It is only unique to the directory that was used when it was created. If you want a system-wide unique string see the uniqid() function.
