Hello Ben,

If you are on a web server, you will not be able to open files on a
remote computer, unless the user uploads them.
If you are on a windows machine, you need to escape your \ so that PHP
will recognize it. : fopen("c:\\test.txt", "r");
Generally speaking, scripts cannot open files above the server root
directory for security reasons.
