Hello,

Bug:  When creating a file using fopen() with an FTP URL, the file may not
be completely written even after you call fflush() and ffclose().  If you
try to include() or require() the file you've just created, it may not work
properly even if there's no warning or error generated.

Solution:  After flushing and closing the file, (1) wait until the file
exists, then (2) wait until the file is not empty.

Example:   while(!file_exists("index.php") { clearstatcache(); }
           while(filesize("index.php" < 10) { clearstatcache(); }

All of this is related to the workaround of not being able to create local
files as another use with PHP.

I hope this saves someone a few hours,
