hi,help me please! i have made an admin panel on my site for other admins,heres the script!:

$link = "/var/www/vhosts/example.com/httpdocs/register.php/";$file = fopen($link, "r");$filesize = filesize($file);$contents = fread($file, $filesize);fclose($file);print <textarea name='edit' class='box' cols='60' rows='60' style='width: 80%;'> ;print $contents ;print </textarea> ;

so they can edit the scripts with out accessing the server.but i have the file tree working only when you click on the file it should open up in the same pagfe with the text using fopen(); i presume. but what ever i try just shows "Resource id #11" why? how can i open a file to read and write showing all the text? thanks scott

You have a slash after the filename, which makes it a directory instead of a file. You also don't have quotes around the textarea, so I'm not sure if this is the code you're actually using, but it's the code you posted so that's what I'm going to comment on. The fread function doesn't return a resource though, it returns a string. If you're printing a resource then you're not printing the return value from fread, it's something else. You can also use file_get_contents instead of fopen, fread, and fclose.
