Hello;
Is there something about a zipped directory that will defeat these two
functions?
(Or am I just missing some un dotted i or crossed t?)
My intention is to select a zip archived directory for download.
when code checks for the existence of file, the function fails to
find it. So I added test for directory:
if(!is_file($_file) || !is_dir($_file))
{
// returns error string
}
I have checked the path info and it appears to be correct.
The target does exist by the name and path specified in
the location specified.
