1.2.1327. Use File Append¶
When appending data to a file, one may also use the file_put_contents() function with the
FILE_APPENDoption.
Using file_put_contents() also keeps the file open as little as possible, unlike keeping the resource open in PHP, between usages.
<?php
// appends the text to the end of the end of the file
file_put_contents($file, $text, FILE_APPEND);
// appends the text to the end of the end of the file
$fp = fopen($file, 'a');
fwrite($fp, $text);
?>
