[PHP] Re: Processing Form Data /w $_POST
What kind of 'logical' order do you need for the Post array?
To clarify:
Do you need to write to a file the POST variables passed to the script?

I have a form (setup.php) that passes values to processSetup.php when they
are written into setup.txt. I'm trying to instead of writing every
idividual value into setup.txt from setup.php, write a loop that will take
as many values as there are in the $_POST array and write them all into a
single array in logical order in setup.txt. I'm new to php and can't figure
out how to do this. I'm thinking of something like...
for ($_POST) {
fwrite($setup, /*something to add current $_POST value to the end of an
array within $setup*/);
}
How should I go about this?
Thank you,

Yes, setup.php - processSetup.php - setup.txt

$setup_filename = /path/to/file/on/the/server/;
$fd = fopen($setup_filename , 'a'); #a for appending to file, w to write
from the beginning checkout php.net for more details on fopen
$report = ;
#
#Apply any re-ordering of the Post array here to you 'logical' order
# look at the manual for asort, ksort, etc
foreach ($HTTP_POST_VARS as $index = $value) {
$report = key:.$index. = .$value.\n;
}
fwrite($fd, $report );
fclose($fd);

RE: [PHP] Re: Processing Form Data /w $_POST
Hi, $report = key:.$index. = .$value.\n; actually, shouldn't it be: $report .= key:.$index. = .$value.\n; If you don't have the . there, its going to keep overwriting the report, and thus writing only the last $report item that was built. .= would concat 'em all together. Am I misunderstanding? -Dan Joseph -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
Re: [PHP] Re: Processing Form Data /w $_POST
Yes that's right. this was just from the top of my head and it's early for me. it should be $report .= key:.$index. = .$value.\n; as Dan has pointed out.
