fprintf problem

[grimrob@blackbelts.co.uk]

fprintf just is not working. I am using PHP Version 4.3.9. Whatever I
do fprintf just fails.

For example:

fwrite($Handle, 'A1');
fprintf($Handle , 'A2);

The first line always works, the second always fails. Likewise any
other example.

Suggestions?

Should be fprintf($Handle , 'A2');

That's just a typo not the problem!

'A2' isn't a format string?

No, that's not the issue, but unless he needs to use printed
formatting, there's no real reason to use fprintf over fwrite.

@Original Poster: how does fprintf fail, do you get an error, or is
the input not written how you expected? You need to give details, or
no one can help you.

In the meantime, try reading the manual: <http://php.net/fprintf>

It gives an run time error because none of the statements below it are
executed.

I got round it by using sprintf (exactly the same apart from the
different first argument) into a string, and then fwrite.
