filemtime returns same value before and after modification of file

Question

Im trying to get the last modified time of a file before and after i write to it using fwrite. But, i get the same values for some reason.

Answer 1

Try to add fclose after the fwrite:

";
$e=fopen('log.txt', 'w');
fwrite($e, "well well well");
fclose($e);
$j = filemtime('log.txt');
echo gmdate("h:i:s", $j);
?>
