Re: XML File does not reflect changes upon reopen - HELP

There might be couple of problems: - your php script should read from the cgi script until EOF, so it continues after the other script finishes - your cgi script should fflush the file before closing, and then close the connection - use clearstatcache() before opening the file if the php script accesses the file before Phil Powell wrote:

I am making changes to an XML file (and the only way I can, unless anyone knows how in PHP I can write TO an XML file!!! is to use a TCL CGI script to write to the XML file), once changes have been made I need to reopen the file and read its contents, however, every time I do I am getting OLD file information and NOT my changes, every single time, unless I refresh my page... Does anyone know what I can do about this? I can't redirect them, that would be horribly inefficient.. what can I do? Thanx Phil
