I'm writing a script that transfers files from a list file and saves them locally. M

If I use values from the list for the filenames of the saved files, it appears that none of the files are saved 'cept for the last one. If I put the values in an array directly in the script file, all is well. I have confirmed that the values are different and I've tried other methods to load the file, such as fgets. Here is a simplified version of my script that has the same problem:

        <?php
        $linklist = file('links.txt');

        foreach ($linklist as $link) {
                echo "saving to $link<br>"; // confirm link name

                $file = fopen ($link, 'w'); // write dummy text to file
                fwrite($file, 'blah');
                fclose($file);
        }
        ?>

And in links.txt I have:

        link one
        link two
        link three

If I run the script, the only file that will have been created is "link three" or whatever is on the bottom. If however, I replace the first line with:

$linklist = array("link one", "link two", "link three");


Then the script works as expected. What am I missing? I've wasted three hours trying to figure this out and I don't know what I could be screwing up. :(
