Note Submitter: Lobster ---- Concerning ceilingfish's post below: Whereas fwriting a blank string returns 0, a failed fwrite returns FALSE. This can be distinguished by using === as in the example in the main documentation. (To avoid confusion, I added a missing bracket too) Thus, the code posted should read: <?php $blank = ''; if(fwrite($somefilehandle,$blank,strlen($blank)) === FALSE) { die 'Some write error'; } else { echo "'$hi' written to file"; } ?>
