is_link
DrTebi at yahoo dot com is wrong. is_readable() checks whether you can do file_get_contents() or similar calls, no more, no less. If the location given returns a 500 or 403 error, you can still read() that (you'll simply get the error page), but it's still read()able. Using is_readable to check the validity of a URL is simply the wrong function.

Sfat
Începând cu PHP 5.0.0 această funcție poate fi utilizată de asemenea cu unele învelișuri URL. Referiți-vă la Supported Protocols and Wrappers pentru a determina care învelișuri susțin familia de funcționalitate stat().
Notă:
The check is done using the real UID/GID instead of the effective one.
This function may return TRUE for directories. Use

Note that is_readable() will return false for streams, eg, php://stdin.

Be careful when using is_readable on symbolic links.
is_readable will return true if the file the symbolic link is pointing to is readable.
The problem is that if the server does NOT allow to follow symbolic links, is_readable will still return true, but e.g. redirecting to the sybolic link will not work. For Apache, make sure that at the server, virtual host configuration level, or inside a directory container you have set
Options +FollowSymLinks
As an example, let's say you have at the document root directory:
index.php -- the script using is_readable
my_linked_page.html -- a regular HTML page
my_link -- a link pointing to my_linked_page.html
Now in index.php:
<?php
if (is_readable('my_link')) {
header('Location: /my_link');
}
?>
If FollowSymLinks is forbidden, this will not work, if allowed, it will.

Sometimes in situations where file_exists fails (returns false even though the file does exist) stat will work.

Safe_mode restrictions ignored means:
cant read by read() so is_readable() = false.
even if safe_mode_include_dir is set and include does works, is_readable() is false to. :(
