mjtweaver Posted January 5, 2011 Share Posted January 5, 2011 I am going through the tutorial found at http://goo.gl/69MeY and in my ultimate wisdom have decided to see if I can create a form, which you input some text, and then in the php file that handles the form in puts that variable into a text document using the fwrite function, basically creating a file from the website containing whatever text you put in. There is no specific purpose to this idea, I am just trying to implement everything I have learnt so far. Form: http://pastebin.com/J62UHBeT PHP Handler: http://pastebin.com/FHuaKkxD I someone could point me in the right direction of what I am doing wrong it would be much appreciated Thanks in advance Michael Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
litebearer Posted January 5, 2011 Share Posted January 5, 2011 reding and writing to txt files is relatively easy, the important questions are what type of data will the file contain ie - simple sentences/paragraphs relating to only one subject OR infomation where each line of the file acts like the fields in a database table etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjtweaver Posted January 5, 2011 Author Share Posted January 5, 2011 Well, for the moment a simple paragraph would suffice. I would like to know where I am going wrong, so I can learn why. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
