bool fflush ( resource handle )

Данная функция осуществляет сброс буферизованных данных в файл, на который указывает handle. Возвращает TRUE в случае успешного завершения, FALSE - в противном случае. Возвращает TRUE в случае успешного завершения или FALSE в случае возникновения ошибки.

Указатель на файл должен быть корректным и указывать на файл, успешно открытый функциями fopen() или fsockopen().

Just a note that fflush takes care of the cache already, at least on my server.  Using clearstatcache before reading a previously written file also worked, but lagged the output time much more noticeably (by two or three seconds), probably due to excess cache erasing beyond files.

Sorry, the note I previously added regarding fflush() has a bug!



when you read file by calling 

$fp = fopen("myfile", "a+");



and you wish to read the content, you have to call 

rewind($fp) before you attemp to read it. (Silly me) Or else if you tried something like

$fp = fopen("myfile", "a+");

$content = fread($fp);



// show that content is in fact null

if ($content == NULL)

 print "but it must be first put to rewind<br>\n";



will result



but it must be first put to rewind.

[new line]



in fact, if you are not careful (like me), and you opened it with

$fp = fopen("myfile", "r+");

$content = fread($fp);

..

// do something with content

..

then you tried to again

$content = fread($fp);

without rewind, you'd get NULL again. This sounds trivial, but if you work with several file resources, with freads and fopens everywhere, you can get easily lost. So becareful.
