    fputs() never puts!

    My class method insert_new() is supposed to create and populate a
    brand new XML file.

    However, the file exists but its contents are never placed into the
    newly-created file, the file always remains empty (byte size 0).

    [PHP]
    /**
    * Class HGFContentXMLWr iter is a special extension of XMLWriter class
    to handle HGF's special
    * need for insertion of XML content per section
    *
    * @author Phil Powell
    * @version 1.0.0
    * @package HGF
    */
    class HGFContentXMLWr iter extends XMLWriter {

    /**
    * @access private
    * @var mixed $content XML content
    */
    var $content;

    /**
    * Constructor
    *
    * @access public
    * @param mixed $indent (optional ' ')
    */
    function HGFContentXMLWr iter($indent = ' ') { // CONSTRUCTOR
    parent::XMLWrit er($indent); // "super()"
    $this->setFormattedCo ntent();
    }

    //------------------------ --* GETTER/SETTER METHODS *--
    -----------------------------

    /**
    * Retrieve formatted content
    *
    * @access private
    * @return mixed XML
    */
    function &getFormattedCo ntent() {
    return $this->content;
    }

    /**
    * Set formatted content
    *
    * @access private
    */
    function &setFormattedCo ntent() {
    foreach ($_REQUEST as $key => $val) if (!isset(${$key} ))
    ${$key} = $val;
    $this->content = '<entry date="' . date('D M j H:i:s \G\M\TO
    Y') . "\">\n" .
    ' <title>[!CDATA{' . $title . "}]</title>\n"

      No warnings etc because you've prefixed your calls with @.

      Where is variable $section defined?

          Oh sorry this was resolved it was due to the behavior of another
          script altogether causing the written file to be overwritten with
          NULL.

          Thanx, and yes I know about '@' and $section is defined earlier as a
          parse from $_REQUEST['section'].
