note 97347 added to function.rename

Code first, then explanation. <?php rename ("/folder/file.ext", "newfile.ext"); ?> That doesn't rename the file within the folder, as you might assume, instead, it moves the file to whatever the PHP working directory is... Chances are you'll not find it in your FTP tree. Instead, use the following: <?php rename ("/folder/file.ext", "/folder/newfile.ext"); ?> ---- Server IP: 78.110.173.36 Probable Submitter: 87.113.38.80 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.rename.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/97347 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/97347/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/97347/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/97347/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/97347/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/97347/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/97347/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/97347 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/97347 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
