Phantom file

[Anon]

I have no clue why this isn't working.

$j = 0;
$aLinks = array();
for($i=0;$i < count($aImage);$i++) {
$filename = $aImage[$i];
if (file_exists($filename)) {
$aLinks[$j] = "<a href=\"items.phtml?item=$aID[$i]\"><img src=\"".$aImage[$i]."\" border=\"0\"></a>";
$j++;
};
};

the file_exists command is always returning false and yet if I change it to !file_exists the images show up and the link works just fine (the broken links also show up though). Please help me, i'm oging crazy here. Thank you.

Try cwd() to the directory where the file you are testing resides. Then do your test. I know that PHP can act funny when testing files from outside of the directory that the file resides.

How do I do that?

Oops, sorry.

chdir("/path/to/dir");

then do your file tests
