I dont seem to have the karma for doing this in RFC so ill propose it here,
and once karma make an RFC
Is it possible to have a 2nd option on file_exists so that it returns the
path you specified
--Example
$cFile = file_exists("/file/located/here.php", true);
and if that exists it will return
/file/located/here.php
instead of true
--Reason
the reason for this is simple actually at the moment if you want to include
a file for usage but want to check it exists you have todo the following
if (file_exists("/file/located/here.php")) {
$cFile = "/file/located/here.php";
}
which can if your doing lots of checking alot of extra code for no reason,
or if you want to use variables, lots of louse variables just for something
that could be pulled from the request
