Hello all,

I am glad that there is this community to help me sharpen my php skills.

I have a form that I have created and will be posting data from to a text file. I don't have database access, so no database anything. It's all text files. I am getting better at using them... anyhow.. Here is my code. I can't figure out why it is not posting to the text file.

<?php
$now = time();
//current date
$date = date("l, d F Y - h:i a",time() - 10800);
//tomorrow
$tomorrow = date("l, d F Y", mktime(0, 0, 0, date("m", $now)  , date("d", $now)+1, date("Y", $now)));

//make sure all data is ready for post
