I now have the following but get the error:

"Notice: Undefined variable: savecontent in /home/fhlinux165/s/swfro/user/htdocs/edityear.php"

 

<?php
$loadcontent = "caldate.txt"; 
if (isset($_POST['save_file'])) {
        $savecontent = ($savecontent);
        $fp = @fopen($loadcontent, "w");
        if ($fp) {
            fwrite($fp, $savecontent);
            fclose($fp);
                               }
                }
    $fp = @fopen($loadcontent, "r");
        $loadcontent = fread($fp, filesize($loadcontent));
        $loadcontent = htmlspecialchars($loadcontent);
        fclose($fp);

?>
</span><br />
<br />
<form action="<?=$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']?>" method="post" name="savecontent" id="savecontent">
  <div align="left">
    <p class="rotary">Change Year </p>
    <p class="rotary">
      <textarea name="savecontent" cols="25" rows="1"><?=$loadcontent?>
        </textarea>
      <br />
      <input type="submit" name="save_file" value="Save" />
    </p>
  </div>
</form>

Would turning them off trick the linux server to run the same way in which the windows one used to?

 

I've looked at the manual briefly although i haven't got time to read it all at the moment and take it in. From what i gathered i need to change the script to this:

 

<?php
$loadcontent = "caldate.txt"; 
if (isset($_POST['save_file'])) {
        $savecontent = (isset($_POST['savecontent']));
        $fp = @fopen($loadcontent, "w");
        if ($fp) {
            fwrite($fp, $savecontent);
            fclose($fp);
                               }
                }
    $fp = @fopen($loadcontent, "r");
        $loadcontent = fread($fp, filesize($loadcontent));
        $loadcontent = htmlspecialchars($loadcontent);
        fclose($fp);

?>

 

But the code doesn't save the details entered into the text area, instead it saves the number '1'. I guess this is because the text field it is meant to record is set to display 1 line?
