A simple mailing list

[Jet-Black]

Hey,

 

I am trying to write some code for a simple mailing list, but my host doesn't allow fopen and I am having a lot of trouble understanding cUrl. Are there any other alternatives, or is there someone who could break down how to rewrite my code using cUrl.  ???

 

<?php

 

$email = $_POST['email'];

 

if( $email != '' ) echo $email;

 

$myIF = 'mailinglist.txt' or die("couldnt openfile");

 

$fh = fopen($myIF, "a");

 

$stringData = "$email\n";

 

fwrite($fh, $stringData);

 

fclose($fh);

 

 

?>

I use dada mail.  Works perfect.

Thats a great site, but I was really just trying to write a simple script to get something from a text box and add it to a list in a txt file. I dont really want or need all of that. Does anybody have any other suggestions or code samples?

That is essentially what this scrip does. I have it integrated into a couple of php sites. It generates the text box to add into your site.  Let me know if you have other questions about it.  I'd be happy to help.
