RE: [PHP] Delete File Contents?

Just open the file in mode "w". $fp = fopen("your_file", "w"); There is also the the function fseek(), which will allow you to move the file pointer around to any place in the file. Mode "w" will suffice for your needs. fopen() - http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.fopen.php fseek() - http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.fseek.php Thanks Jeremy Allen -----Original Message----- From: Chris [mailto:chris@escaperadius.com] Sent: Monday, December 17, 2001 3:57 PM To: php-general@lists.php.net Subject: [PHP] Delete File Contents? I've created a program that runs a process then stores the results to a file on the server. I would like the file to contain only the most recent update, but it seems I can only append to my using fopen. Is there a way to open the file and overwrite the data in that file? I've considered deleting the file and creating a new one but that seems like a lot to do. It would be nice if there were a way to set a pointer to the top of the file and overwrite.
