php's fopen()

[dsdsdsdsd]

hello;
I have a .txt that I am trying to write to; it is set now at 777 and the directory that it is in is also set to 777; when using

PHP Code:

<?php 
if (is_writeable("H_B_scroller_1_captions.txt")) 
  { echo "&pass_word_OK=yes";   //echos to a .swf file 
    $opened_file = fopen("H_B_scroller_1_captions.txt","wb"); 
    fwrite($opened_file,"blah=hhjhh&"); 
    fclose($opened_file); 
  } 
else 
  {echo "&pass_word_OK=no";     //echos to a .swf file 
  } 
?>

I get a "no" response;


Next I deleted the "H_B_scroller_1_captions.txt" thinking that the fopen() could create the .txt

PHP Code:

<?php 
    $opened_file = fopen("H_B_scroller_1_captions.txt","wb"); 
    fwrite($opened_file,"blah=hhjhh&"); 
    fclose($opened_file); 
?>

however the .txt file is not getting created;

I also posted this post on the AScript page so some may get aggravated at me for 'double posting' - to those angry people: "easy";

any thoughts?
thanks

Have you tried opening it with the 'w+' mode rather than 'wb'?

PHP Code:

_$opened_file_=_fopen("H_B_scroller_1_captions.txt","w+");_
