note 46830 added to function.clearstatcache

clearstatcache(); i think it does not work.. i have this code that checks for a existing file and display a different file if it finds nothing. problem is when i upload the new file it does not show the new file, i have tried this clearstatecache(), but did not work. here's my code though. $itemCode_SHOW = $row[2]; $filename =("/www/images/stockprod/$itemCode_SHOW.jpg"); clearstatcache(); if (file_exists($filename)) { $itemCode_SHOW = $row[2]; } else { $itemCode_SHOW = "noimage"; } ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.clearstatcache.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+46830 Delete -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+46830&report=yes Reason: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+46830&report=yes&reason=bad+code Reason: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+46830&report=yes&reason=spam Reason: useless example -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+46830&report=yes&reason=useless+example Reason: contains commercial links -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+46830&report=yes&reason=contains+commercial+links Reason: useless note -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+46830&report=yes&reason=useless+note Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+46830&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
