help with this function please!

[yassir]

Hi i get a couple of errors wth this code. Could anyone help me out with what they could be?

function getData() {
	$handle = @fopen('somefile.txt', "w");
	$content = '';
	if($handle) {
		while (!feof($handle)){
			$content .= fread($handle, 8192)
		}
	fclose($handle);
	}
	return $content;
}

i think maybe the 2nd line should be:

$handle = @fopen(w,"somefile.txt");

or maybe that the 3rd line should be:

$content = "";

and that maybe there should be a semi-colon in the while loop?

Thanks. your help will be much appreciated!

Yes!

Here

$content .= fread($handle, 8192) ;
