Im working with flat files, so Im trying to code a message were if the text file isnt there, it says something like "No comments yet"...But I keep getting the error that there is no file. Here is the php code for this message:

PHP Code:

<?php
if ("2.txt") {
   include "2.txt";
} else {
   echo "There are no comments yet.";
}
?>

But no matter what, I get this message as if the script it always trying to find "2.txt".


Warning: main(2.txt): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/lerchism/public_html/blog/if.php on line 3

Warning: main(2.txt): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/lerchism/public_html/blog/if.php on line 3

Warning: main(): Failed opening '2.txt' for inclusion (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/lerchism/public_html/blog/if.php on line 3


thanks

if (file_exists("2.txt"))

if ("2.txt") will always be false because "2.txt" will never be true

Ah, Thank you Everything works great now.
