Of course, if the file exists but you don't have read permission on it, 
filereadable() will return FALSE, and yet in that case you will usually 
not be able to overwrite it.

The same family of functions also includes
        executable()
        filewritable()
        isdirectory()

In addition, findfile() and finddir() can search the directory hierarchy 
both up and down, and they will return the empty string if nothing is found.


Best regards,
Tony.
