To work with file_exists under Windows XP and Apache2 (PHP Build 4.3.1, havn't had a chance to
upgrade yet, and its only a development enviroment). I have had to use realpath() to report the
full path of the file.
For Example:
file_exists(realpath('file.ext'));
where file.ext is the file with the extension, in this case it is assumed that the file is in the
same directory as the script calling the function, others have posted how to use directories. Also
note that single quotes (') must be used or else php will interpret it as fileext instead of
file.ext.
