The fopen($filename,'w') function will create the file. Therefore, the
file exists, and file_exists() will return true, causing the code to
take the "Did nothing" branch.
Try this:
$fileName = '/home/leke/www/dic/' . $word . '.html';
if (file_exists($fileName)) {
print "Did nothing!";
}
else
{
$handle = fopen($fileName, 'w');
fwrite($handle, "$content1 . $content2 . $content3");
fclose($handle);
print "done!";
}
Of course, you probably want to add some error checking after the
fopen() call to make sure the file was created properly before writing
to it, but this sequence should work.
