NOTES
Note
This function will not work on remote files as the file to be examined must be accessible via the server's filesystem.
Note
When safe mode is enabled, PHP checks whether the files or directories being operated upon have the same UID (owner) as the script
that is being executed.
Note
This function is not implemented on Windows platforms.
