fopen

[corillo181]

what fopen works with short directories but not with full directories

 

this works

$f = fopen("textdocs/test.txt","r");

 

but this dont

$f = fopen("http://www.xxx.com/textdocs/test.txt","r");

In the manual it shows an example like this:

$handle = fopen("http://www.example.com/", "r");

 

So I would assume that it should work...what about it doesn't work?

[corillo181]

it shows nothing when i use the short version, it show the text when i use the full version it does not show anything.

[corillo181]

alright i found the problem i didn't show my whole code cuz i thought it would not matter but is th efilesize that doe snot read it.

<?php

$F = fopen("http://www.xxx.com/textdocs/test.txt","r");

 

$size = filesize("http://www.xxx.com/textdocs/test.txt");

 

$data = fread($F, $size);

 

fclose($F);

 

print $data;

?>

 

how can i make filesize work

[darkfreaks]

<?php

///outputs the filesize in test.txt

$filename = 'test.txt';
echo $filename . ': ' . filesize($filename) . ' bytes';

?> 

[corillo181]

that only work when a file is given with the directory not the file website path.

[darkfreaks]

should work using filesize

 

<?php
filesize('http://www.mysite.com/test.text','r');?>

 

try putting an r so it can read the file since your using fopen

fopen it, then fread it into a string, run strlen($string); ?
