Can php create new pages?

[tjmbc]

I've been using a single dynamic page to show content and I would prefer to use a separate page.

 

For instance:

 

A user submits a form with their name.

 

Rather than displaying the name in say, the title dynamically:

 

<title><? echo $user['name']; ?><title>

 

I would like a new page like this:

 

<title>John Doe</title>

 

Can php do this?

Check out fopen and file_put_contents

Sorry for being blunt, but why the hell would you do that?  You can make them feel special and "have their own URL" with mod_rewrite, but you're wasting space by hard-coding a name into title tags.

He was using that as an example. I can think of many reasons you would want to create a static page... one is efficiency. If the data rarely changes, you're far better using a static page.

When you're using something like $user['name'], I can bet that it'll change based on whoever is connecting, hence the mod_rewrite comment.  Intelligently caching near-static files is a different story.

As he stated, $user['name']; was an example

So how about we stop talking hypothetically and actually get real information from the thread starter? =/
