@bhowe - Logging class now contains lclose public method - thank you. @Kay - You are right. If Logging class is used on Windows then CR and LF shoud be used to break the line. Linux/Unix uses only LF. I added "\r\n" to the comment above fwrite line. Info: From this moment, source code of the Logging class can be downloaded from the Download link below post title.

Very useful, but would give better output for windows with each message on a new line by adding " /r" in the fwrite() function. that is:

fwrite($this->fp, "$time ($script_name) $message\r\n");

EXAMPLE OUTPUT:

16:03:15 (preview) Test message
16:03:35 (preview) Test message
16:03:50 (preview) Test message

I used it thanks

Shouldn't you always implicitly close file handles or am I just paranoid ( or blind) . Nice little class though Ill add it to my arsenal.

Thanks for sharing this greate work! Optionally you can add this function to close the file pointer.

private function __destruct() {
    fclose($this->fp);
}
