I did not get access to any database system on the ISP's end.
I could get access to MySQL for $$$.
Initially I just want to test everything works with storing to simple text
files.
After that has happenned.
And if the requirement grows.
Then spending $$$ is feasable.
As I said I am just a novice.
So I want to get something small going.
Kind Regards,
Robert.

I am a complete novice at php.
My internet service provider gives me webspace and PHP script execution
for free.
I would like a simple example of a website that stores data on the
server, in simple text files.
Is this possible?

If you're storing data, try to use a database, as you can do a lot more
with a DB than you can with flat text files on the server, and it's much
faster.
However, if you're stuck with text files, then look at things like
fopen, fwrite and file_get_contents functions, as these should help a
lot.
