stat() not working right?
Hi,

I'm having a problem using the stat() function :/ I currently have;

Code:
my $bytes = (stat("d:/inetpub/wwwroot/mydomain.com/submit/docs/$startid/".$filename))[7] || 0;

.. which *shoul* be reading "d:/inetpub/wwwroot/mydomain.com/submit/docs/4/17th December 2004.doc", and passing back the size.

My debug info seems to be ok; (except the byte size)

Quote:
Getting stats for: d:/inetpub/wwwroot/mydomain.com/submit/docs/4/17th December 2004.doc
Bytes Grabbed: 0

Am I missing something really stupid? :/

TIA
