whelpton Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 I am trying to create a file upon sucessful user registration. I've been trying to use the following code: $filename = 'test.txt'; $somecontent = "Add this to the file\n"; // Let's make sure the file exists and is writable first. if (is_writable($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($filename, 'a')) { echo "Cannot open file ($filename)"; exit; } // Write $somecontent to our opened file. if (fwrite($handle, $somecontent) === FALSE) { echo "Cannot write to file ($filename)"; exit; } echo "Success, wrote ($somecontent) to file ($filename)"; fclose($handle); } else { echo "The file $filename is not writable"; } But I'm struggling with getting the correct file location. I'm trying to use the path /home/alport/public_html/, but then also include the persons username using a variable, for example by using $_POST["username"]. But I cant get the two codes to gel together. Id greatly appreciate pointers on how to get the code working. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
