#Untested code:
$path = "/full/path/to/file/php/can/write/to";
if (isset($submit)){
$file = fopen($path, 'w') or die("Unable to write to $path. Check
permissions.");
fwrite($file, $text, strlen($text));
fclose($file);
}
$file = fopen($path, 'r') or die("Unable to read from $path. Check
permissions.");
$text = fread($file, filesize($path));
?>
<TEXTAREA NAME=text COLS=60 ROWS=20><?php echo $text;?></TEXTAREA><BR>
<INPUT TYPE=SUBMIT NAME=submit>
</FORM></BODY></HTML>
The tricky part is Security. You really don't want a file in the middle of
your web-site that any random surfer can write to...
Using the above code as-is would be pretty foolish under virtually all web
sites.
