Write script to file.

[MadnessRed]

OK, basically I want a txt file with a load of variables that I can write to file.

 

for example if you enter Fred into an input, the files scipt.txt would show

 

$name=Fred

 

would this script work?

 

I can't see it working for me somehow though.

 

 

<?php

$filename = 'users.txt';


$comment = {
$friend1=$_GET["freind1"];
$url1=$_GET["url1"];
$pic1=$_GET["pic1"];
$friend2=$_GET["freind2"];
$url2=$_GET["url2"];
$pic2=$_GET["pic2"];
$friend3=$_GET["freind3"];
$url3=$_GET["url3"];
$pic3=$_GET["pic3"];
$friend4=$_GET["freind4"];
$url4=$_GET["url4"];
$pic4=$_GET["pic4"];
$friend5=$_GET["freind5"];
$url5=$_GET["url5"];
$pic5=$_GET["pic5"];
$friend6=$_GET["freind6"];
$url6=$_GET["url6"];
$pic6=$_GET["pic6"];
$friend7=$_GET["freind7"];
$url7=$_GET["url7"];
$pic7=$_GET["pic7"];
$friend8=$_GET["freind8"];
$url8=$_GET["url8"];
$pic8=$_GET["pic8"];
$friend9=$_GET["freind9"];
$url9=$_GET["url9"];
$pic9=$_GET["pic9"];
$friend10=$_GET["freind10"];
$url10=$_GET["url10"];
$pic10=$_GET["pic10"];
$friend11=$_GET["freind11"];
$url11=$_GET["url11"];
$pic11=$_GET["pic11"];
$friend12=$_GET["freind12"];
$url12=$_GET["url12"];
$pic12=$_GET["pic12"];
};

// Let's make sure the file exists and is writable first.
if (is_writable($filename)) {

    // In our example we're opening $filename in append mode.
    // The file pointer is at the bottom of the file hence
    // that's where $somecontent will go when we fwrite() it.
    if (!$handle = fopen($filename, 'a')) {
         echo "Sorry your comment wasn't posted.<br> Cannot open file ($filename)";
         exit;
    }

    // Write $somecontent to our opened file.
    if (fwrite($handle, $comment) === FALSE) {
        echo "Sorry your comment wasn't posted.<br> Cannot write to file ($filename)";
        exit;
    }

	echo "!Changes have been made!";

    fclose($handle);

} else {
    echo "The file $filename is not writable";
}
?>

the only way we can know whether it will work is to test it. did you test it?

yep have now. neatened it up a bit, now got an error on line 22

 

new code

 

<?php

$filename = 'freinds.txt';

Line 22

$comment = {

$friend1="$_GET['freind1']"/n

ok changed the { to "" which sorted out line 22

 

then it had a problem with line 23 because of the varialbe I guess

 

so I changes the $ to $

 

now the problem is on line 24 because it doesn't like the & sign

 

anyway I though i would try and echo it first as if I could do that then it would be easier I think.

still no luck tried using a /$ to show a dollar but its still not working, here is my echo code now, I think that if I can get it to work in echo it will be easier
