Re: Functions in Safe Mode?

The problem is the owner of the script must be the owner of the file that you are accessing. If you fix your file ownership for your news directory or change your php script to be the same owner as the news directoryo you will be able to access the files. Look at the chown command,. you will need to execute it on the command line. Jason Jay Fitzgerald wrote:

My code: echo number_format(filesize("news/final_1.txt")); The Warning: Warning: filesize() [ <http://www.php.net/function.filesize> function.filesize]: SAFE MODE Restriction in effect. The script whose uid is 17704 is not allowed to access news/final_1.txt owned by uid 65534 in /home/*******/public_html/news.php on line 10 0 The Question: Is there a way to get the file size of files if safe mode is on? I need to do an IF/ELSE statement so that if the file size is less than a certain size, then it does not display the text contained in that file. Am I going about this the wrong way?
