If you are new to PHP or just need to refresh your skills, this is the place to start. This series of tutorials will give you the basic knowledge you will need to create a simple PHP website.
PHP is a reflective programming language originally designed for producing dynamic web pages.[1] PHP is used mainly in server-side scripting, but can be used from a command line interface or in standalone graphical applications. Textual User Interfaces can also be created using ncurses.
Reads to EOF on the given file pointer from the current position and writes the results to the output buffer.
If an error occurs, fpassthru() returns
FALSE. Otherwise, fpassthru() returns
the number of characters read from handle
and passed through to the output.
The file pointer must be valid, and must point to a file successfully opened by fopen() or fsockopen() (and not yet closed by fclose()).
You may need to call rewind() to reset the file pointer to the beginning of the file if you have already written data to the file.
If you just want to dump the contents of a file to the output buffer, without first modifying it or seeking to a particular offset, you may want to use the readfile(), which saves you the fopen() call.
Note: When using fpassthru() on a binary file on Windows systems, you should make sure to open the file in binary mode by appending a b to the mode used in the call to fopen().
You are encouraged to use the b flag when dealing with binary files, even if your system does not require it, so that your scripts will be more portable.
See also readfile(), fopen(), popen(), and fsockopen()
