Re: [PHP] Code Refusing to Die
try using fsockopen from the php network functions works better than fopen...we use it to run wget on one of our machines...fopen is supposed to report false on failure, however, we don't use it for connections outside our file system and even then we always use file_exists before using fopen on the local machine...it should report false. > What I don't understand is why the die statement > never executes. > If you try to fopen a file that doesn't exist > shouldn't fopen return false? > __ Do You Yahoo!?

Re: [PHP] Code Refusing to Die
I thought about file_exists... but url is by definition a remote file and
file_exists does not work on remote files.
http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.file-exists.php
What I don't understand is why the die statement never executes.
If you try to fopen a file that doesn't exist shouldn't fopen return false?

Re: [PHP] Code Refusing to Die
$fp is not a valid file handle because the url is
invalid, it can't close a file handle for a file that
wasn't opened because it never existed (invalid url).
You need to fix the logic to allow for the possibility
that a file does not exit and therefore cannot be
closed. Maybe the php function file_exists might be of
some use.
