Re: File locking problem

I later learned that if you fopen(), write some stuff, fflush() and ffclose(), that doesn't mean the file is complete (or that it even exists). This has to be a PHP bug, which I'd be happy to file if someone more experienced could confirm that it isn't stupid user error. For a workaround, after I fflush() and fclose() I while() until the file exists, and then while() until it's larger than 10 bytes. I should while() until it's the size of the data I've written, but this method has been reliable so far. -- Charles Wiltgen "Well, once again my friend, we find that science is a two-headed beast.
