fwrite problems

[dennismonsewicz]

I am trying to write some test content to my CSV file and when I run my script everything seems to work properly but when I view the file nothing is in the CSV doc.

 

Code:

<?php

$file = 'file.csv';
$somecontent = "Hello World";

if(is_writable($file)) {
$fp = fopen($file, 'w');

if (!$handle = fopen($file, 'a')) {
         echo "Cannot open file ($filename)";
         exit;
    }

    // Write $somecontent to our opened file.
    if (fwrite($handle, $somecontent) === FALSE) {
        echo "Cannot write to file ($filename)";
        exit;
    }

fclose($fp);
echo 'Hello World';
} else {
echo 'File not writable';
}

?>

You are not closing the file properly.

 

   fclose($fp);

 

Should be:

   fclose($handle);

 

Fix that and see if that solves your problem.

Thanks for your help, but that did not fix the problem I think it is a permissions problem because I tried it locally and it works, but not on the webserver...

Yes you have a permission problem, go into the admin on the host site and change it.

Please note every time you open this script you will over write your file.cvs.
