SYNOPSIS
bool is_writable (string $filename)
DESCRIPTION
Returns TRUE if the $filename exists and is writable. The filename argument may be a directory name allowing you to check if a directory
is writable.

taken into account.
PARAMETERS
o $filename
- The filename being checked.
RETURN VALUES
Returns TRUE if the $filename exists and is writable.
EXAMPLES
Example #1
is_writable(3) example
<?php
$filename = 'test.txt';
if (is_writable($filename)) {
echo 'The file is writable';
} else {
echo 'The file is not writable';
}
?>
ERRORS
/EXCEPTIONS
Upon failure, an E_WARNING is emitted.
NOTES
