Newbe PHP help

[oren.gozlan]

First time with PHP.

What i'm trying to do is to have a apache server (using WAMP) to catch a post request to the server and dump the posted file to the disk (windows)

Help ... ???

Perhaps be more specific...

If you just want to put the contents of what was posted in a file then try this (with comments included):

[code]<?php
// file name and location
$file_to_write = "/var/tmp/post.txt";

// open the file for writing and assign to a resource id ($file)
$file = fopen($file_to_write, "w");

// write a header to the file
fwrite($file, "The following entries were posted:\n\n");

// write a row in the file for each of the posted elements
foreach ($_POST as $key => $value){
  fwrite($file, "$key: $value\n");
}

// close the file
fclose($file);
?>[/code]

Incidentally, I took these instructions directly from the [url=http://uk.php.net/manual/en/]PHP Manual[/url]!  A first stop for every PHP Newbie.
