I'm trying to write to a file in the current directory - no remote
files. The subject says it all - I can add that both the directory
and the file is wordwritable. This happens on a (quite good) free
hoster in Norway which doesn't use safe mode, running PHP 5.1.6 as the
PHP info below shows ...

Test it at:
http://home.no.net/moldevbk/fopen-test/?mode=w (write - fails)
http://home.no.net/moldevbk/fopen-test/?mode=a (append - ok)
http://home.no.net/moldevbk/fopen-test/p.php - PHP info
http://home.no.net/moldevbk/fopen-test/fopen-test.phps - source code of test script.

I have searched the web and usenet, but not found this problem
mentioned before. I do realize that I can work around the problem by
truncating the file first and then appending to the empty file - but
that is ugly as ...

Regards, Hans
