Bug Type: Filesystem function related
Operating System: Windows XP Professional
PHP Version: 4.3.2
New Comment:
PHP Falsely recognizes "..." as a valid directory, then triest to use
this, but obviously it cannot since it isn't a valid directory.
For instance:
if (file_exists("$file") && $file != "." && $file != "..")
Filesystems recognize "." and ".." as directories, but filesystems do
not recognize "..." as a directory, PHP _DOES_, this is the glitch. If
in the above code $file is "..." PHP generates an error. I can't make
it anymore clear than that.

Where is the bug? I don't see anything in your report that is not
correct...

No feedback is necessary, the bug submission is strait forward.
if(file_exists("...")) generates errors.

Exactly what is the bug here? file_exists("...") ??
or what? (that returns FALSE..)

<?
if (file_exists("$file") && $file != "." && $file != "..")
{
$file = join('',file($file));
echo "$file";
}
?>
Ok the glitch is this: if $file is "." or ".." the script is fine, no
errors are generated, but, when $file is "..." or "......." or
"..................", etc. then for some reason PHP reconizes this as a
directory, yet it can't be included therefore generating this error:
---
Warning: file(...) [function.file]: failed to create stream: No such
file or directory in F:\server\bug.php on line 4
Warning: join() [function.join]: Bad arguments. in F:\server\bug.php on
line 4
---
This "bug" isn't going to crash the entire internet or anything, but it
should be fixed.
