RE: [PHP-WIN] Forcing a file name

You must be doing the exact same thing I was doing last month! <?PHP //you can use whatever you want down here... $newname = $date . $time . ".txt"; rename("D:/InetPub/wwwroot/yourdir/" . $file_name, "D:/InetPub/wwwroot/yourdir/" . $newname); ?> I had some problems with this on election night though. I tested it a hundred times and it worked GREAT! But IIS wouldn't let me rename a file while people were asking for it! (Oooops...)
