[PHP] is_file() and is_dir() info
I've read a lot about the is_file and is_dir functions, but something is still missing. If I call is_file to tell me if something is a file or not, and it must traverse a large path, e.g. ./dir1/dir2/file.txt, it will almost always fail. Can anyone tell me why, and what a possible work around is? I guess I could CHDIR() first or something. -- Austin Gonyou Systems Architect, CCNA Coremetrics, Inc.

RE: [PHP] is_file() and is_dir() info
Will somone on this list please help me in this? All the examples I've come across researching this are WAY too complex for getting around this if someone can confirm my suspicions. -- Austin Gonyou Systems Architect, CCNA Coremetrics, Inc.

RE: [PHP] is_file() and is_dir() info
Well, I finally got some time on this and found that is_file() and is_dir() will NOT traverse drectories very well. So, you must chdir(), then execute is_file() is_dir() as needed. -- Austin Gonyou Systems Architect, CCNA Coremetrics, Inc.
