Greetings PHP(eople),

I have a wget process that runs to download a file from a web site,
however, if no file exists at the location I`m pulsing, how do I get it
to abort ?

Here is the code :

<?php
$getfile = 'wget -dv -o log.txt http://www.somesite.co.za/somefile.php';
$get = shell_exec($getfile);
?>

I looked at filesize(), but if no file is brought back then there is
nothing for the function to check.

If someone could point me to the right PHP function, or a link
somewhere...

Regards
