# fwrite

(PHP 3 <= 3.0.18, PHP 4 >= 4.0.0)

fwrite -- Binary-safe file write

## Description

``int fwrite` (int fp, string string, int [length])`

fwrite() writes the contents of `string` to the file stream pointed to by `fp`. If the `length` argument is given, writing will stop after `length` bytes have been written or the end of `string` is reached, whichever comes first.

Note that if the `length` argument is given, then the magic_quotes_runtime configuration option will be ignored and no slashes will be stripped from `string`.

> Note: On systems which differentiate between binary and text files (i.e. Windows) the file must be opened with 'b' included in fopen() mode parameter.

See also fread(), fopen(), fsockopen(), popen(), and fputs().
