Because it isn't /supposed/ to work remotely - actually it's technically impossible to 
get this information via HTTP.

That's why it's funny :)

You should make a suggestion to the PHP-Doc team though, to clarify this out in the 
manual.

fstat() only works for local file systems ;)

I will never work on remote files.

I tried to use FSTAT to get file info about a remote file. If I point to a local file 
it works but not on URLs (http).
I believed this was the differendce between FSTAT and STAT (that FSTAT uses file 
pointers, which in it's turn supports URLs), otherwise (as I can see it) there is no 
actual difference between them.

My installation is a pretty basic RH/Apache/PHP/MySQL set up. Static, not DOA.

Example:
<?php
$xml_file = "http://cws.huginonline.com/S/130062/scor.html";;
//$xml_file = "scor.htm";

$fp = fopen( $xml_file, "r" );
$array_fileinfo = fstat ( $fp );

print( "ROWS:" . count( $array_fileinfo ) . "\n" );
print_r( $array_fileinfo );

fclose( $fp );
?>

Above is a not working example, if you change the $xml_file to the local file 
(commented) it will work as expected.

Thanks for a GREAT scripting language!
