[RESOLVED] FOpen - ok....maybe not

[sfhazel]

I've build a Flash Viewable XML blogging system. I am in the process of creating the back end part of the project (adding, editing, deleting).

The code below should just open my blog.xml file and write to it. Should be simple...and I thought I had this code working before. The file extension is xml, but even changing that to txt doesnt seem to help. I am getting an error in my browser that says "No input file specified". Anyways, This is probably one of those "doh" moments.

<?php

//create data for file
$xml = "<?xml version=\"1.0\"?>
	<blog>
		<entry title=\"Testing the Blog\" date=\"Sept 13\" content=\"Test content\" />
	</blog>";

//file
$filename = 'blog.xml';

// Let's make sure the file exists and is writable first.
if (is_writable($filename)) {
   if (!$handle = fopen($filename, 'a')) {
         echo "Cannot open file ($filename)";
         exit;
   }
   if (fwrite($handle, $xml) === FALSE) {
       echo "Cannot write to file ($filename)";
       exit;
   }
   echo "Success.";
   fclose($handle);
}else{
   echo "The file $filename is not writable";
}

?>

bah! this was a "DOH" moment. I was accessing the file incorrectly:

//file
$file = dirname($_SERVER['SCRIPT_FILENAME']).'/'.'blog.xml';
