Hello there, I'm very new to php and have been reading some decent tutorials etc in my aim to become a good php programmer I'm trying to edit a file's text depending on the text entered on another page For example, the page to be edited is going to display an offline message when the site is turned off I want this to be able to be edited (the offline message) via the admin panel on the site I have created the text box and the code looks a bit like: $ITEMS4[] = build("<b>Site Title:</b>",input('site_title')); $ITEMS4[] = build("<b>Meta Keywords for search engines:</b>",phpfox_textarea('meta_keywords')); $ITEMS4[] = build("<b>Meta Description for search engines:</b>",phpfox_textarea('meta_description')); $ITEMS4[] = build("<b>Allow HTML on your site?</b>",select_option('allow_html')); $ITEMS4[] = build("<b>Turn off all ads on the site?</b>",select_option('turn_on_adds')); $ITEMS4[] = build("<b>Max time online before the session ends for a user:</b> <br /> (Minutes)",input('max_time_online')); $ITEMS4[] = build("<b>Shut down the site?</b>",select_option('turn_site_offline')); [b]$ITEMS4[] = build("<b>Site Offline Message</b> <br> (The Message your users will see when your site is Offline)",phpfox_textarea('NEED SOMETHING HERE'));[/b] the one in bold is the one i added to existing options i need something where it says "need something here" but not sure the best steps to go about what i want to do
