title: On Windows, can you use UNC like paths to files in PHP, for functions like file_get_contents(), etc?
body: <p>(Assuming the network folders/permissions are correctly set up and working in Windows, and a 'default' PHP setup...)</p>
  
  <p>Is it possible to use UNC network paths [like <code>\\ServerName\Folder\file.txt</code>] in PHP's functions like <code>file_get_contents()</code>, <code>fopen()</code>, etc?</p>
  
  <p>And/or, what special cases allow/disallow this?</p>
