It would, I suppose, even without seeing the actual errors. fputs and
fwrite want a file pointer, ie the value returned by fopen, as the first
argument. And if there is a third argument, it should be the number of
bytes to be written, not something that looks like a fopen mode :-)
fclose also wants a file pointer not a name.
$fp = fopen("file.txt", "w");
$result = fputs($fp, "<a href=\"$url\">$text</a><br>");
fclose($fp);
You probably don't need the $result in the second line, but if you
wanted, you could use it to confirm writing of stuff before closing or
whatever.
You could use single quotes to delimit the string you are writing; then
you wouldn't need to escape the double quotes - in the example you show.
