Linux/PHP question

[Myrle Francis]

HI,

 I created a simple counter for my website and it doesn't seem to be
working. I copied it from a windows/apache installation on my local windows
machine and it works there (just not on linux)

The file that contains the hit count hitcount.txt has the attributeof rw-
rw- rw.

The program itself counter.php has the attribute of rwx r-x r-x

The  code is as followes:
<?php
$count_my_page = ("hitcounter.txt");
$hits = file($count_my_page);
$hits[0] ++;
$fp = fopen($count_my_page , "w");
fputs($fp , "$hits[0]");
fclose($fp);
echo $hits[0];
?>

could anyone please provide me with a clue as to what i'm doing wrong.
I've written another simple pnp programs on this site (rootshell.be) and I
know php works.


Thank you
Myrle
