It's nice to see that fopen() directly supports HTTP and FTP urls rather than local files.

What I'd really like to see in future versions is the ability to use other functions such as filesize(), fseek() etc. on HTTP and FTP urls.

It would seem hard to implement, but the mechanisms are definitely there (FTP and HTTP resume for example).

Thanks for listening!
