Hi,

Her is a quick and dirty one, amend as required.

Code:
if [ -f "filename" ]; then
                 printf "\n File Present \n\n"
            else
                 printf "\n File Not Present $ERROR \n\n"
            fi

In the code above, you will probably have to change the printf statement for an echo -e statement.

Regards

Gull04

cubrid_prepare - Prepare a SQL statement for execution

SYNOPSIS
resource cubrid_prepare (resource $conn_identifier, string $prepare_stmt, [int $option]) DESCRIPTION
The cubrid_prepare(3) function is a sort of API which represents SQL statements compiled previously to a given connection handle. This pre-compiled SQL statement will be included in the cubrid_prepare(3). Accordingly, you can use this statement effectively to execute several times repeatedly or to process long data. Only a single statement can be used and a parameter may put a question mark (?) to appropriate area in the SQL statement. Add a parameter when you bind a value in the VALUES clause of INSERT statement or in the WHERE clause. Note that it is allowed to bind a value to a MARK(?) by using the cubrid_bind(3) function only. PARAMETERS
o $conn_identifier -Connection identifier. o $prepare_stmt -Prepare query. o $option -OID return option CUBRID_INCLUDE_OID. RETURN VALUES
Request identifier, if process is successful; FALSE, if process is unsuccessful. EXAMPLES
Example #1 cubrid_prepare(3) example <?php $conn = cubrid_connect("localhost", 33000, "demodb"); $sql = <<<EOD SELECT g.event_code, e.name FROM game g JOIN event e ON g.event_code=e.code WHERE host_year = ? AND event_code NOT IN (SELECT event_code FROM game WHERE host_year=?) GROUP BY event_code; EOD; $req = cubrid_prepare($conn, $sql); cubrid_bind($req, 1, 2004); cubrid_bind($req, 2, 2000); cubrid_execute($req); $row_num = cubrid_num_rows($req); printf("There are %d event that exits in 2004 olympic but not in 2000. For example: ", $row_num); printf("%-15s %s ", "Event_code", "Event_name"); printf("---------------------------- "); $row = cubrid_fetch_assoc($req); printf("%-15d %s ", $row["event_code"], $row["name"]); $row = cubrid_fetch_assoc($req); printf("%-15d %s ", $row["event_code"], $row["name"]); cubrid_disconnect($conn); ?> The above example will output: There are 27 event that exits in 2004 olympic but not in 2000.
