note 57992 added to function.fwrite

Given the following hypothetical code: $fp = fopen("some.dat", "w"); $result = fwrite($fp, null); if (! $result) { echo "couldn't write"; } fclose($fp); The output will be "couldn't write". It appears as though you cannot write a null string to a file. ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.fwrite.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+57992 Delete: added to the manual -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+57992&report=yes&reason=added+to+the+manual Delete: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+57992&report=yes&reason=bad+code Delete: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+57992&report=yes&reason=spam Delete: useless -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+57992&report=yes&reason=useless Delete: non-english -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+57992&report=yes&reason=non-english Delete: already in docs -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+57992&report=yes&reason=already+in+docs Delete: other reasons -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+57992&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+57992&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
