note 114515 added to function.is-file

Please be aware wildcards do not work as one might expect. <?php $file = '*.*'; if ( is_file($file) ) { echo( $file . ' is a regular file' ); } else { echo( $file . ' is not a regular file' ); } ?> The above snippet suggests that *.* is a regular file. It does not sound regular to me. I would expect is_file() to return FALSE. ---- Server IP: 64.71.164.2 Probable Submitter: 2602:306:cc9b:9670:9c23:654c:3561:5f5d ---- Manual Page -- http://php.net/manual/en/function.is-file.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/114515 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/114515/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/114515/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/114515/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/114515/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/114515/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/114515/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/114515 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/114515 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
