files in php

[290184]

i want to save the content of a textarea in a file in php.the code i tried is:

<? if ($submit)

  { //nese butoni eshte ruaj

    if ($submit=="Ruaj")

      {

      $your_data=($HTTP_POST_VARS['comments'])

      $era = "beni.txt";

$fh = fopen($era, 'w') or die("Can't open file");

fwrite($fh, $your_data);

fclose($fh);}}

      ?>

could you tell me where is the problem? ???

Where have you defined $submit? If its comming through a form, its most likely in $_POST['submit'].

yes submit is in a form,i tried it like you said but it doesn't work.

[kenrbnsn]

use $_POST instead of $HTTP_POST_VARS.

 

At the start of the script put in the lines:

<?php
if (isset($_POST['submit']))
    echo '<pre>' . print_r($_POST,true) . '</pre>';
?>

This will dump what is being passed to your script from the form.

thanks ken but is the same,the content of the files doesn't change.

the code:

<?

if (isset($_POST['submit']))

    echo '<pre>' . print_r($_POST,true) . '</pre>';

{

if ($_POST['submit']=="Save")

{

$your_data = $_POST['comments'];/ comments is the name of the textbox

$era = "beni.txt";

$fh = fopen($era, 'w') or die("Can't open file");

fwrite($fh, $your_data);

fclose($fh);}}

?>

is it allright?
