PHP - Fwrite Problem

Hey guys,
I'm trying to get my software to write to a config file, but having a little trouble?

Quote

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_ENCAPSED_AND_WHITESPACE, expecting T_STRING or T_VARIABLE or T_NUM_STRING in /home/ukinsigh/public_html/musecms/mc-install/handle_data.php on line 6



Which I know is this bit:
Code: [Select]
$stringData = "$config['MySQL']['hostname'] = \"localhost\"\n";

But im not sure how to fix the error? Any support would be GREAT! -thanks

The servers at my uni blocked the fwrite & fputs functions. Is there another way to write to a file using php? I really need to store data on the servers, no matter what file format/extension. Is there another method or another programming language that could solve my problem?

how do i do this please??
i have:
fwrite($fh, $stringDate);

but want to write the next fwrite ($fh,$stringData) on a new line in the text file?

thank you

Hi, I am trying to save some content with form which has php code in it.

i.e $submittedphpcode

<?php

echo 'test';

?>


my code to save that $submittedphpcode

$file = "file.php";
$ourFileHandle = fopen($filefile, 'w+') or die("can't open file");
fwrite($ourFileHandle, "$submittedphpcode");
fclose($ourFileHandle);


and i am getting this file created with slashes

<?php\r\n\r\necho \'test\';\r\n\r\n?>

i tried with stripslashes but it just remove \ not r n , i need to keep spaces etc.

any help on how to save it as php file properly?

Thanks

On my main page of my forum, it shows the total amount of Posts and Topics on board, and it selects these from a query IBF_STATS,. and I was just wondering, do you think it would be more improvement wize to edit each time somone post's you use fwrite, and make it add +1 into the .txt on the server, then just extract the .txt contents to show on the main page, so you do not have to use a mysql query, do you think it would beneficial or no?

Is reading from a .txt a strain on a server or alot easier then comparing 1 simple (kinda long) mysql query?

Hi,
I need some telnet function written by php. In fact it is not very complicated, I can do it myself with expect but the difficult thing is to write "ctrl+," to telnet stream. Connecting to device is a little bit weird. Login prompt doesnt appear on cli without sending "ctrl+,". If you send "ctrl+," then "?" appears after you can write "login" to write your user name...

something like that
Quote

Connected to 1.1.1.1 (1.1.1.1).
Escape character is '^M'.

here it is waiting for ctrl+, and after
Quote

?

appears, now you can write login
Quote

?login
Enter name:

it's waiting for user name.

How can I send "ctrl+," character via fwrite function of php?

I am writing a sql dump file and some of my fields have ' in it. Like the name is "Joe's Cake Shop". How should i add ' infront of ' to make it look like Joe''s Cake Shop.Also, I got an idea about adding ' infront of ' by seeing other database dump.Can someone please enlighten me why should i do it.

My Code :-


Code: [Select]
<?php

});


function loadLog(){
$.ajax({
url: "onlineusers.html",
cache: false,
success: function(html){
$("#online").html(html);
  },
});
}
test.php (This is my temporary file to test the Login authentication for FB.. THIS IS WORKING)
Code: [Select]
<?php
  session_start();
  require_once("src/facebook.php");
  $config = array(
    'appId' => '285873338131549',
    'secret' => '56b9f71b9fd307a033aeeb725893fc89',
   );

  $facebook = new Facebook($config);
  $user_id = $facebook->getUser();
?>
<?php
    if($user_id) {
      try {
        $user_profile = $facebook->api('/me','GET');

echo '<a href="' . $login_url . '">LOGIN</a>';
    }
echo "<a href='logout.php'>Logout</a>";
  ?>
What it does is, it simple insert the picture and name of the user in a flat html file..
http://www.barkadafm.org/onlineusers/index.php

Now, my problem is,.
I dont know how to delete the pic and name if a user logs out or disconnect..

Example, my name is Name5 and i will connect / login using http://www.barkadafm.org/onlineusers/test.php
for the first connect, my name and picture will be inserted to my flat html file..
Let's assume that there'are already 4 users online.. and the 5th data will be mine.

Pic1 Name1
Pic2 Name2
Pic3 Name3
Pic4 Name4
Pic5 Name5

what i want is,
if i click Logout, i want my picture and name be deleted from the flat file (onlineusers.html)
and destroy my 2 variables set at test.php

Please help me..
Thank you!

$DOCUMENT_ROOT=$_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'];

$outputstring = $date."\t".$tireqty." tires \t".$oilqty."oil\t".$sparkqty."

//open file for appending
@$fp = fopen('$DOCUMENT_ROOT/../orders/orders.txt', 'ab');
if (!$fp)
{
    echo '<p><strong>Your order can not be processed at this time.

    exit;   
}
//write to file 
fwrite($fp, $outputstring, strlen($outputstring));
flock($fp, LOCK_UN);
fclose($fp);


Can someone please explain to me why this Code is giving me the error?
i've tried to take out $DOCUMENT_ROOT and specify where exactly i want the file to be /dir/dir/file.txt
but it still gives me an error.

Does anyone know how I can make fwrite() write to a new line? I tried the following, but it didn't work.

fwrite($fp, "".$_POST['feedback']."\n");
fwrite($fp, "".$_POST['feedback']."\r\n");

hi all i'm trying to make a quick and simple '.htaccess' installer and i'm using fopen/fwrite to do this but i'm getting an error:

Parse error: parse error in /var/www/test.php on line 12


here's the code:

how do i include the code in the $Data string bit?

I have a simple script which records search terms and writes them to an external file. I would like to limit this file size.

The Use:
I have a search page where people can search for PDF files. I would like to have a 'cloud tag' or list of the most recent terms searched at the bottom of the page.

Here is my script which works beautifully:

<?php

$pattern = "/filetype:(\w+)/";   // filteype:(wildcard for word) to grab the file extension along with the word filetype:

if ( $_GET['q'] == "" ) {
$term = "";
} else {
       $term = preg_replace("$pattern", '', $_GET['q']); // get rid of the filetype parameter
}

$searched = $term . ", ";
$fopen = fopen("searched.html", "a");
fwrite($fopen, $searched);
fclose($fopen);
?>


The above code grabs the search term when the SERP page is opened, and writes it to a file. I will later use phpInclude to put the contents of that file on the bottom of my search engine page.

The problem is that after a million searches, this file will be huge!

Question:
How can I limit the file size and organize these search terms so that the most recent ones appear on the page?

<?php
$fp = fopen ('data.txt', 'w');
fwrite($fp, $_POST['feedback']);
fclose($fp);
echo 'Done.';
?>

Why have I implemented $_POST['feedback'] incorrectly? I also tried:

".$_POST['feedback']."
'".$_POST['feedback']."'
'.$_POST['feedback']'
.$_POST['feedback']

I'm trying to create an online web editor. It works fine for opening and writing files on the same server where the web editor is hosted, but I want it to be able to get_file_contents, fopen and fwrite files on a remote server, logging in with ftp_connect and ftp_login. I've noticed the functions ftp_get and ftp_fget but I'd rather not create another local file, if possible I want to open the remote file directly into a <texarea> then save it directly back to the remote server. Is this possible? So far I just get errors... 

Here's an example of the code I'm trying to combine, to retrieve the contents of a file on a remote server and put them in a <textarea>:

Code: [Select]
<?php

    $conn = ftp_connect("ftp.domain.com");
    ftp_login($conn, "username", "password");
    ftp_pasv($conn, true);

  $filename='example.php';

// open file 
  $fh = fopen($filename, "r") or die("Could not open file!"); 

// read file contents
  $datax = fread($fh, filesize($filename)) or die("Could not read file!");
  $data=htmlspecialchars($datax);

// close file
  fclose($fh);

// close this connection
  ftp_close($conn);

echo '<textarea cols="200%" rows="50">'.$data.'</textarea>';

?>
And another failed example:

Code: [Select]
<?php

  $filename='editor.php';

  $fh = fopen("ftp://username:password@domain.com/example.php", "r") or die("Could not open file!"); 

  $datax = fread($fh, filesize($filename)) or die("Could not read file!");
  $data=htmlspecialchars($datax);

  fclose($fh);

echo '<textarea cols="200%" rows="50">'.$data.'</textarea>';

?>
