readfile -- Outputs a file

Description

int readfile ( string filename [, bool use_include_path [, resource context]] )

Reads a file and writes it to the output buffer.

Returns the number of bytes read from the file. If an error occurs, FALSE is returned and unless the function was called as @readfile(), an error message is printed.

Vihje: T�m�n funktion kanssa voit k�ytt�� my�s URLia tiedostonimen sijaan jos "fopen wrappers" on kytketty p��lle. Katso funktiosta fopen() lis�tietoa tuetuista URL-protokollista ja siit� kuinka tiedoston nimi m��ritell��n Liite L.

You can use the optional second parameter and set it to TRUE, if you want to search for the file in the include_path, too.

See also fpassthru(), file(), fopen(), include(), require(), virtual(), file_get_contents(), and Liite L.
