PHP - Writing To A File?
I'm trying to write to a file with the following code.
$fh = fopen("../inc/config.php", "a") or die("\r\nCan't open file."); $write = "\$config['database_host'] = {$mysqlh}; \$config['database_user'] = {$mysqlu}; \$config['datbase_pass'] = {$mysqlp}; \$config['datbase_name'] = {$dbn}; \$config['table_prefix'] = {$tp};"; fwrite($fh, $write); fclose($fh); It is printing out "Can't open file", which I guess means it can't find the file or I've given the wrong path. The file that is executing this code is /install and the file I'm trying to write to is /inc/config.php. I thought .. put you up a directory so if I do .. I will be at the root and then do /inc I will be in inc. Can someone please guide me on what I'm doing wrong? Thanks.

I am new to these forums, I am working on this assignment, and these are the current issues I am running into.
Notice: Undefined variable: year in G:\EasyPHP-5.3.2i\www\PHP_Projects\ChineseZodiacs\zodiac_year_switch.php on line 77
ie. $year = validateInput($year,"Birth Year");
Notice: Undefined variable: year_count in G:\EasyPHP-5.3.2i\www\PHP_Projects\ChineseZodiacs\zodiac_year_switch.php on line 138
ie. echo "<p>You are person " . $year_count . "to enter " . $year . "</p>\n";
Honestly, I believe they are linked, because what should be happening, as the user enters the year, and hits submit, it should create a file called counts/$year.txt - $year should equal the entered data in the textbox, any help would be appreciated.
Thank you for your help.

I am using a script I adapted from a tutorial to print the contents of a text box to a txt file. Basically, it's a really simple way of seeing who has logged in. I only have a handful of users. The problem is, although the text file is being created in the proper folder, it isn't being written to and just remains blank. <div align="center"> <table width="300" border="2" bordercolor="#FFFFFF" style="-moz-border-radius: 18px; -webkit-border-radius: 18px;" height="120" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"> <tr> <form name="form1" method="post" action="checklogin.php"> <td> <table width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1" background="images/loginbg.jpg" style="-moz-border-radius: 15px; -webkit-border-radius: 15px;"> <tr align="center"> <td colspan="3"><font color="#FFFFFF"><strong>Family Login </strong></font></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="78"><font color="#000000">Username</font></td> <td width="6">:</td> <td width="294"><input name="myusername" type="text" id="myusername"> <?php $myusername = $_POST['myusername']; $data = "$myusername\n"; //open the file and choose the mode $fh = fopen("logs/login.txt", "a"); fwrite($fh, $data); fclose($fh); ?></td> </tr> <tr> <td><font color="#000000">Password</font></td> <td>:</td> <td><input name="mypassword" type="password" id="mypassword"></td> </tr> <tr> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td><input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Login"> </td> </tr> </table> </td> </form> </tr> </table> </div> I'm not sure what's going wrong but I'm guessing it's the placing of the php, or at least some of it. I'd quite like to add the time they logged in as well. Any idea's anyone? Ok, I know how to write to a file, but what I'm looking for is to check if a line of code exists, and if it is, don't recreate it. It would also be nice to not recreate the file either. Code: [Select] $file = fopen("index.html", "w"); fwrite($file,"This is a line of text"); fclose($file); I need help! I cant get this to write the correct way! What i need is based on the value of what is posted to the script it has to write it in the config file and also make a folder! Please help Code: [Select] <?php $start = '$uploadpath=\''; $structure = '../banner/images/'.$_POST['FOLDER'].'\';\n'; $myFile = "PHP/confup.php"; $fh = fopen($myFile, 'w') or die("can't open file"); $stringData = "<?\n"; fwrite($fh, $stringData); $stringData = "$start $structure"; fwrite($fh, $stringData); $stringData = "?>\n"; fwrite($fh, $stringData); fclose($fh); // Desired folder structure // To create the nested structure, the $recursive parameter // to mkdir() must be specified. if (!mkdir($structure, 0777, true)) { die('Failed to create folders...'); } // ... ?> Hi, I am a newbie to php and am trying to copy mysql data to a text file.

Thanks Is it possible to write to an exact line and column of a text file with PHP like with fwrite or something? Ok I need to write an array to a file here is the code if($place[2] < 10){ echo "Account Invalid"; $account = var_dump($account_data[$i][0]); echo $account; $fp3=fopen('invalid.txt', 'a+'); fwrite($fp3, $account); fclose($fp3);} when I try if($place[2] < 10){ echo "Account Invalid"; $account = var_dump($account_data[$i][0]); echo $account; $fp3=fopen('invalid.txt', 'a+'); fwrite($fp3, $account_data[$i][0]); fclose($fp3);} I just get "Array[1]" written to the file..

Hello I am in need of writting to a txt file on a remote server. When trying I get this error: "failed to open stream: HTTP wrapper does not support writeable connections in /home....." How can I write to a siply txt file on a remote server? I have a file named example.xml I want to know how to write to the 3rd line on this file? What function to use?

I have been working with this snippet of code that I found on a tutorial site. It works like 97% and I get the format mostly like I need it. Except, I can not figure how to add an extra single node to the list. The code generates 20 random numbers and puts them into an array. The array is then used to create a numbers node in the xml file. It goes through and creates all the nodes. I can not seem to figure out how to put a single game numbernode at the top of all the numbers nodes. I am also not understanding how to write the output to create the actual xml file. I have written code in the past to write a string to a text file but I am not sure about this because it is in an array? The xml file will be appended every 5 minutes for data comparison down the road. I think I will need to add a routine that calls the data back in at the beginning of the script and looks for the last game number if it is there and add 1. The game number must increment each time it is appended. Any ideas on how to finish this up? The final out put will look like this. I only did a few lines instead of all 20 numbers to keep this short. Code: [Select] <?xml version="1.0"> <Container> <gamenumber>10</gamenumber> <numbers>47</numbers> <numbers>10</numbers> <numbers>5</numbers> <numbers>27</numbers> </Container> My Script Code: [Select] <?php $balls = range(1,80); shuffle($balls); $pick = array_slice($balls,1,20); //$drawn = implode(", ",$pick); $arraySize = sizeof($pick); // print ("Arraw is $drawn\n\n"); $doc = new DOMDocument(); $doc->formatOutput = true; $drawn = array(); $r = $doc->createElement( "Container" ); $doc->appendChild( $r ); for ($i=0; $i!= $arraySize; $i++){ $drawn [] = array( 'numbers' => $pick[$i], ); } foreach( $drawn as $draw ) { $numbers = $doc->createElement( "numbers" ); $numbers->appendChild( $doc->createTextNode( $draw['numbers'] ) ); $r->appendChild( $numbers); } echo $doc->saveXML(); ?> Thanks for your advise and help!!! I just wrote a php page that pulls live data from a database and presents it in an XML layout. In Internet Explorer, I can Edit, Select All, then Copy-Paste and save as XML. The resulting XML works fine. In Firefox, I can click File, Save Page As, select Text Files, then name it as an XML. Again, it works fine as XML. So..... how do I skip the Copy/Paste (IE) or Save Page As (Firefox) steps and write the output directly to an XML file? I've played with stdout(), buffers, page capturing utilities (wget, cURL, httrack, etc....), but no luck so far. This creates a pretty intense page due to the amount of data involved (1.3+ MB). Any help is appreciated! Hello, I need help. I have a file test.txt, and this content in it: Code: [Select] [group 1] immediate=yes links=1,14,12,22 avaliable=no [group 2] immediate=no links=1,4,14,22 Now, I also have a WEB app with database, where I can change both groups, and the only this missing is, that when a change is made in on group, that I write it to the file test.txt. I know how to write to files, but here is the problem (2 examples): If I change on the WEB page below group 1 from immediate=yes to immediate=no -> how can I change this in the file (just for group 1). If I change on the WEB page below group 2 to avaliable=yes -> how can I add this line in the file below group 2 To summarize - I have problems detecting where the group 1 or group 2 starts and end - so I only change for each group. It's been a while since I've dealt with text files and currently I am unable to write the contents of a variable to a text file, only the literal is being written. Should I be de-referencing or is this even possible? Also the problem is compounded by the fact that i also want to write the contents of a class display function into the text file. Hey guys i've been trying to find out how to create and and write in a file, so that you can for example add a nav button to your website by form (you know like a admin panel). It tried some things but it doesnt work cause it wont write to the file... here is the code i've used: $ourFileName = $_POST['sitename']; $ourFileHandle = fopen($ourFileName, 'w') or die("can't open file"); fclose($ourFileHandle); $myFile = $_POST['sitename']; $fh = fopen($myFile, 'w') or die("can't open file"); $stringData = "test\n"; fwrite($fh, $stringData); $stringData = "test\n"; fwrite($fh, $stringData); fclose($fh); the "sitename" is the id from the form where you choose what the menu tab should be called. I would really glad if you could help me out with this one thanks! MinG |
