PHP calling a txt file from POST Variable

Hi,

 

I wrote this to retrieve a file based on a POST value.

For some reason it will not retrieve the file content and display it at all.

 

I get this message:

Warning: fopen(18.txt) [function.fopen]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/content/x/y/z/path/html/includes/different.php

 

The 18 is the correct POST value.  So that is a positive :)

 

There is a file named 18.txt in /home/content/x/y/z/path/html/includes/18.txt

 

Thanks.

 

<?php

 

$id5 = $_POST[id];

//Display Text File

$myFile = $id5;

$myFile .= ".txt";

$fh = fopen($myFile, 'r');

$theData = fgets($fh);

fclose($fh);

echo $theData;

 

?>
