With VIRTUAL_DIR on, it means it will try to open current directory. It will succeed, though not giving what you want, probably. >> while (!feof($fp)) { I do not know what feof(directory) should give... Maybe it will never be true. >> $buffer = fread($fp,512); This actually reads nothing, as far as I see. So, the bottom line is that V_FOPEN probably should check on empty file name. -- Stanislav Malyshev stas@zend.com +972-3-6139665
