Re: file locks

<<Is there a way for a script to tell if the file it's trying to access is locked by other script (via flock()) or not. I need to make script wait untill other script running in a parallel thread releases the lock on the file.>> Without testing, would this work? Just a suggestion (read: shot in the dark) that may work. while(!$filehandle) { $filehandle = @fopen("file_in_question", "r/w/whatever"); } <<Tnx in advance.>> You're welcome in advance. :) __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
