Hi again, I'm trying to write a few strings to a file on my Win2K home server(IIS 5). But The only thing I get is: Warning: fopen("score.txt","w") - Permission denied in c:\inetpub\wwwroot\nat\g2score\newscore.php on line 30 I've set the properties of score.txt to writeable and readable! I've got the same error after setting the directory to write/readable too. Here's my code...any hints?? THE CODE: //falls er nicht in die datei schreiben kann if(!is_writeable("score.txt"))print("file is not writeable<br>"); //<- I don't get this message! if($datei=fopen("score.txt","w")) { for($i=0;$i<$scorecount;$i++) { //falls der spieler mehr punkte hat wird dieser ausgegeben if($usrscore>$tmpscore[$i] && $check==false) { fwrite($datei,$usrname); fwrite($datei,$usrscore); fwrite($datei,$usrmode); fwrite($datei,$usrplayer); $check=true; } blablabla....
