right so the plan is to teach myself php and i though it was going well i seamed to be picking it up but have come up against a brick wall with this script. The script is aimed to use a txt file like a database for a clan site. This is the submit section after we have played a match but i cant seam to get it to write to a file. The data then will be retreived again and posted on teh site through some more code which i am yet to write. It has to be txt as our host does not support mysql and such. So all help is appreciated ... So far have for the form page [!--quoteo--][div class=\'quotetop\']QUOTE[/div][div class=\'quotemain\'][!--quotec--]</head> <body> <form name="form" method="post" action="submit.php"> <p>Type of match - Friendly, league, last minute or mess around </p> <p> <input type="text" name="textfield4"> </p> <p>Opponents </p> <p> <input type="text" name="clan"> </p> <p>Score</p> <p> <input type="text" name="score"> </p> <p>Man of match</p> <p> <input type="text" name="manofmatch"> </p> <p>Write up</p> <p> <textarea name="writeup"></textarea> </p> <p> </p> <p> <Input type="submit" name="submit" value="Wee" type="button"> </p> </form> </body> </html> [/quote] then for submit.php have [!--quoteo--][div class=\'quotetop\']QUOTE[/div][div class=\'quotemain\'][!--quotec--]<? php $type=$_POST['form']; $Clan = $_REQUEST['clan']; $score = $_POST['score']; $manofmatch = $_POST['manofmatch']; $writeup = $_POST['writeup']; $fp = fopen("results.txt","a"); if(!$fp) { print "error! The file could not be opened"; exit; } $stringtowrite=$Clan."|".$score."|".$manofmatch."|".$writeup."|".$type; fwrite($fp, $stringtowrite); fclose(fp); Print "$clan" // this was an attempt to see if script was running it didnt print anything ?> Done[/quote] so how far wrong am i? any help is appreciated and i am really sorry if i have made a big error as i have tried my best to use google to find me a solution to this but cant find anythin and its doing my head in.
