Hi All,
 I'm fairly new to this list/PHP and I've already hit a bit of a brick
wall. I'm trying to write some data out to a temporary file then make a
passthru call so that another program can take the file as input on the
command line

I first tried

 print "<p>Do stuff</p>";
   $temp = tmpfile();
   fwrite($temp, $text);
   passthru("/path/to/program $temp");
   fclose($temp); // this removes the file

However I realised that $temp was a file handle rather than a filename. Is
there anyway I can get the filename? A google and search on php.net
doesn't show anything obvious

Rgds
