so that it will write to a file
and put a leading 0 in front of single digit months.
Example, for February the output to the file would be 02.
The fwrite doesn't seem to work.
That's because fwrite() doesn't accept a formatting string. You write a string; the third parameter is optional and is the number of bytes to write.
You need fprintf() instead.
fprintf doesn't seem to work for me. It stops things in its tracks and does nothing through the rest of the script beginning at that line.
//I have it as
fprintf($out,"%02d\n",$logmonth);
Is this right?
The syntax is right if $out is a file resource.
