php is making fun of me *lol*

[Anon]

i got a function which works with files! The funny thing is if i want to put the dir to the file in a variable ($ftp_userfile = '/Programme/G6 FTP Server/users.ini'😉 php says "no error in file("")" But if i put the direct path into the File("") stuff it works ?!?

$file=file("/Programme/G6 FTP Server/users.ini"); <= works

$file=file("$ftp_userfile"); doesn't work!

anyone got an idea?

guys correct me if I'm wrong

Tackleberry,

The file handle function commands in PHP first have to be based off the actuall path. Such as fopen, you have to use the real file name, but once you have identified it you should be able to use (in your case) $file. i.e fclose($file)

I read this somewhere in the documentation somewhere I'm pretty sure but I could be wrong 🙂

Regards,

Taylor

hmm when i declare the variable in the function it works...

can anyone provide me with a global tut oder something like that? I think that will help me out but when i use global in the config.php the script doesn't work 🙁

global $ftp_userfile in function and it works! 🙂
