Grrr! Another problem

[Anon]

Here is the block:

$filename = "/home2/drummerl/public_html/currentpass.txt";
$whattoread = @fopen($filename, "r") or die("Couldn't open file");
$filecontents = fread($whattoread);
$msg = "The current server password is: <b>$filecontents</b>";
fclose($whattoread);

The error is "Warning: Wrong parameter count for fread() in /home2/drummerl/public_html/3.php on line 15"

Line 15 would be $filecontents = fread($whattoread);

Now I'm guessing that the error would be in the variable $whattoread but I have no clue what I am looking for, never came across this error before. Any answers?

Ah I found out my own problem by taking a trip to the php.net manual. Turns out it was missing something 😛
It now works and should look like this:

$filecontents = fread($whattoread, filesize($filename));
