music_fan01 Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 I have a guestbook that writes an entry to a text file, but when I first run it I get this error: Warning: fread() [function.fread]: Length parameter must be greater than 0 in C:\xampp\htdocs\xampp\index.php on line 66 Is there a way I can get rid of that error and still be able to use my guestbook until I actual update my guestbook using a database?

PFMaBiSmAd Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 The error is because the file initially doesn't exist and the method the code is using to read the file assumes that the file exists and has a length greater than zero. The simplest solution would be to use file_exists in a conditional statement to skip over the code that is trying to read the nonexistent file until it actually exists.
