is_readable($filename)) {
    echo 
'The file is readable';
} else {
    echo 
'The file is not readable';
}
?>

Erori/Excepții

În cazul eșecului este emis un E_WARNING.

Note

Keep in mind that PHP may be accessing the file as the user id that the web server runs as (often 'nobody'). Safe mode limitations are not taken into account before PHP 5.1.5.

Sfat

Începând cu PHP 5.0.0 această funcție poate fi utilizată de asemenea cu unele învelișuri URL. Referiți-vă la Supported Protocols and Wrappers pentru lista învelișurilor care susțin familia de funcționalitate stat().

Notă:

The check is done using the real UID/GID instead of the effective one.

Note that is_readable() will return false for streams, eg, php://stdin.

Safe_mode restrictions ignored means:
cant read by read() so is_readable() = false.
even if safe_mode_include_dir is set and include does works, is_readable() is false to. :(

DrTebi at yahoo dot com is wrong. is_readable() checks whether you can do file_get_contents() or similar calls, no more, no less. If the location given returns a 500 or 403 error, you can still read() that (you'll simply get the error page), but it's still read()able. Using is_readable to check the validity of a URL is simply the wrong function.

Be careful when using is_readable on symbolic links.

is_readable will return true if the file the symbolic link is pointing to is readable.

The problem is that if the server does NOT allow to follow symbolic links, is_readable will still return true, but e.g. redirecting to the sybolic link will not work. For Apache, make sure that at the server, virtual host configuration level, or inside a directory container you have set
Options +FollowSymLinks

As an example, let's say you have at the document root directory:
index.php -- the script using is_readable
my_linked_page.html -- a regular HTML page
my_link -- a link pointing to my_linked_page.html

Now in index.php:
<?php
if (is_readable('my_link')) {
 
header('Location: /my_link');
}
?>

If FollowSymLinks is forbidden, this will not work, if allowed, it will.

Sometimes in situations where file_exists fails (returns false even though the file does exist) stat will work.
