CreatureOfHabit Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 I am looking for a way to write data from a Form to a file that i could later access and fill in the form again.I have an online application form that will email my boss the data when submitted:foreach ($_POST as $Field=>$Value)$MsgBody .= "$Field: $Value\n\n";The problem is that the boss doesn't like the way that it is formatted and would prefer to see the information in a form (identical to the form the user fills out). Because the form has approx 30 fields, i thought it might be easier to write the data to file instead of storing it in a DB.Any help would be appreciated.Creature Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/19304-write-form-data-to-filehelp-please/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
