Hello,
im running Red Hat 7.2 with PHP 4.0.6. How would i go about writing to a
file as the data is being written, not when the file is closed
#!/usr/bin/php -q
<?
$fp=fopen('t', "a");
if ($fp === false)
die("could not open file");
for($i=0; $i<10; $i++)
{
$time= date("D, Ymd. G:i:s");
$time = $time."\n";
$result = fwrite($fp, $time, strlen($time));
if ($result == -1)
die("error writing to file");
// if ($condition) die; <-- in case this happens i would like to have the
times outputted to the file 't'
sleep(2);
}
fclose($fp);
?>
i tried the above, while it is running but 't' comes up as a blank (seen
using ls). How would i go about putting the contents in 't' when they are
written to the file
thx in advance
gamin.
