Looking at the response I got to posting the PHP bug report (http://bugs.php.net/27461) it certainly sounds like it is a deliberate change which will be staying. <OT>My personal opinion is that requesting a 0 length to fread should work fine; either returning the empty string if the file is open or FALSE otherwise. Logic which requests a zero length is probably flawed, but I don't think it is fread's job to detect that if there is a reasonable interpretation of what reading zero bytes from a file should return. Or at the very minimum, whichever behaviour is already established should be maintained unless there is a good reason to change it, which I don't see here. If anyone can point me at the relevant list archive or other source where this decision was made I'd be interested to see what lead to this, as I can't find it documented anywhere. </OT> -- Mark Rogers, More Solutions Ltd :: Tel: 0845 45 89 555
