If the permissions on the file were right, I think yes.
To point out another possible problem
$answerFile = "$questionFileName-A.txt"; Then I go along and open this
later with $wa=fopen("$answerFile","a");
Actually the fopen attempts to create the file if it doesn't exist. But
I'd be worried about the $ in your filename? If php tried to parse that
as a variable you may get unexpected results? I think that $answerFile
might contain the value '.txt' Try echoing it and see....
