note 38848 added to function.fgetc

Unfortunately, if you do it the way you have written (from 05-Dec-2002 07:23): $c = fgetc($f); while($c != 'X') fputs($f, $c); fclose($f); either it will not echo the character at all, or it will do it an infinite number of times (i.e. go into an infinite loop). The proper way to do it is like this: $c = fgetc($f); while($c != 'X') { fputs($f, $c); $c = fgetc($f); } fclose($f); ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.fgetc.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+38848 Delete -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+38848&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+38848&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
