Im making a thing for admins in my clan...

I need a thing where you enter the text in the text box and will write it to a document... But the catch is. It needs to delete the old text from the document

This is what I have right now...

Code: Select all

<?php
$text= $_GET["text"];
$logfile= '/home/users/progamers/public_html/loc/clan.txt';
$fp = fopen($logfile, "a");
fwrite($fp, $_POST["text"]);
fwrite($fp, "");
fclose($fp);
?>
<html>

<head>

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="all" href="css.css">

<meta http-equiv="Content-Language" content="en-us">
<meta name="GENERATOR" content="Microsoft FrontPage 5.0">
<meta name="ProgId" content="FrontPage.Editor.Document">

I know that's what he said, I was just suggesting that he could write it to a database which would then display it on a webpage, and that if he wanted that instead then I could give him the code.

I have a quick question of my own:
Is it possible to have php do commands inside each other?

You don't need to know that much about it. As long as you have phpmyadmin on your hosting it's simple.

my stepdad said he would make me an account later on our server...

Hes getting ready for work right now tho...

So in the mean time I want to figure out how to write this data to a text document...

The problem is... Everytime you hit submit. It needs to clear all the data from that document and reload the new...
