note 10875 deleted from function.fopen by sander

Fopen does not handle redirects, this means that if you are running a virtual domain, you will need the full path from the root (ie: /home/users/me/web/file.txt), instead of the URL (ie: http://www.myvirtualdomain.com/file.txt) If you don't know the path of the file from the root, run a fopen against a file that doesn't exist from the same dir of the file you want to open: // Open file for writing if(!($outFile=fopen('http://www.yourvirtualdomain.com/inexistentfile.txt,'a'))) { echo "Could not open the file."; exit; } This will throw an error with the path from the root for your php file containing the above code. Use this path for your file like this: // Open file for writing if(!($outFile=fopen('/home/users/me/web/file.txt,'a'))) { echo "Could not open the file."; exit; } Murdock
