Checking if something exists in php?

[Leader of Men]

Is there a way to check if a file exists in php?

I want something like
[code:1:5f091dca26]
if $file exists {
echo "It exists";
} else {
echo "file doesn't exist!";
}[/code:1:5f091dca26]

Well?

Nevermind, I was rather close, but I got it now thanks to my book
