note 93689 added to function.fread

If you just want to output the contents of a text file, use the include or require statements instead. They are not functions so they take up less overhead Also, they are easier to use, one line(command) versus three. Example fread() <textarea> <? $fh = fopen("textfile.txt", "r"); fread($fh); fclose($fh); ?> </textarea> VERSUS: <textarea><? include("textfile.txt"); ?></textarea> ---- Server IP: 64.71.164.2 Probable Submitter: 71.164.68.102 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.fread.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/93689 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/93689/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/93689/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/93689/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/93689/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/93689/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/93689/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/93689 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/93689 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
