None of the examples on the page test to see if the file has been opened successfully. Fopen will
return false if it failed. To quickly extend one of the examples in the manual:
$filename = "some.dat" ;
$dataFile = fopen( $filename, "r" ) ;
if ( $dataFile )
{
while (!feof($dataFile))
{
$buffer = fgets($dataFile, 4096);
echo $buffer;
}
fclose($dataFile);
}
else
{
die( "fopen failed for $filename" ) ;
}
Hope this is some use.
