ok what if i used ftp with user name and password to edit say a text file would it make things slower??
$handle = fopen ("ftp://user:password@example.com/somefile.txt", "r+");
say i had a text file on my server and a page that users can come to and add text into the text file but i dont want to make the text file(chmod) read/write to all users … can i use this in the php thus making it safe coz users wont get the password … but will it be slower or anything coz its accessing via ftp?? just wondering
hope that makes sense
