If there is an empty file (0 byte) in the project folder Rapid PHP always updates it when using the "Publish project to FTP" function is used. The file didn't change or anything, but RapidPHP always uploads it again.
If there is just one space in the file (1 byte filesize) the problem disappears.

Re: Bug: Empty Files
Sorry, just to clarify your report; when you say all true 0-byte files are 'updated', is that what you mean or do you mean 'uploaded'? Updated may mean the file's time and date attributes are changed (which they could be if being uploaded anyway). Uploaded implies they are being uploaded regardless of whether you have selected them or not.
What settings do you have set as default (if any) for 'publish project to FTP'?
Interesting bug, I am trying to replicate using WeBuilder to see if this software shares the issue.

Re: Bug: Empty Files
It is selected by default, because it seems that RapidPHP thinks the file has been updated (but nothing changed it, no editor, user or program). If I de-select it it gets not uploaded, but it is selected always by default when opening the "Publish project to FTP" dialog.
Try this:
Create a project or open an old one
Use the Contextmenu-Function "New File" to create an empty file
Press the "Publish project to FTP Button"
Now the new file should appear, no publish it
Then publish it again and the file is in the list again (although it didn't change).
Hope it helps
