Reported By: artem at w510 dot tm dot odessa dot ua
Status: Open
-Bug Type: Filesystem function related
+Bug Type: Documentation problem
Operating System: redhat
PHP Version: 4.3.2
New Comment:
'a' mode forces the kernel to always write at the end of the file.
ftell() will give undefined results for append-only streams, as will
seeking.
Writing to such a file should always be appended, regardless of the
results from ftell().
Making this a documentation problem.

after installing 4.3.2
$fr = fopen("filename", "a");
$pointer = ftell($fr);
points to 0! forced to add
fseek($fr, 0, SEEK_END);
$pointer = ftell($fr);
to move to the file end
