Description
bool
copy ( string source, string dest)
Makes a copy of the file source to dest. Returns TRUE on success or FALSE on failure.
Example 1. copy() example <?php
if (!copy($file, $file.'.bak')) {
echo "failed to copy $file...<br />\n";
}
?> |
|
Note: As of PHP 4.3.0, both source and dest may be URLs if the "fopen wrappers" have been enabled. See fopen() for more details. If dest is a URL, the copy operation may fail if the wrapper does not support overwriting of existing files.
| Warning |
If the destination file already exists, it will be overwritten. |
