Your getting that because the file was just created so file size = 0. This doesn't mean it's not working it's just letting you know that fread won't read anything because there is nothing to read yet. Let me make one adjustment.

This should clear that up.

Not for me, I copied that script, refreshed my page about 7 or 8 times and got this in pets_feed_20080829.txt

ID Category Description
ID Category Description
ID Category Description
ID Category Description
ID Category Description
ID Category Description
ID Category Description
ID Category Description
ID Category Description

which means that it is working fine.
