heres a question, I am using this to update an xml file... the vars originate from a flash interface, so they are all strings, do I need to worry about anything here? should i be usiung arrays in php to house the info or is this sufficient?
I am using php only to add new entries, the flash parses and loads the xml file seperately "Travis" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... just a quick syntax question: here is my php <? $openingItemTag = "<item>\n"; $openingEntry = " <entry "; $numberAtt = "number="; $nameAtt = "name="; $dateAtt = "date="; $messageAtt = "message="; $linkAtt = "link="; $closingEntry = "/>\n"; $closingItemTag = "</item>"; $Entry= $openingEntry.$numberAtt.$myNumber.$nameAtt.$myName.$dateAtt.$myDate. $messageAtt.$myMessage. $linkAtt.$myLink.$closingEntry; $Item = $openingItemTag.$Entry.$closingItemTag; $fp = fopen ("news.xml", "a"); fwrite($fp,$Item); fclose($fp); ?> if done twice it returns this: <item> <entry number=01name=travisdate=01.08.02message=hello worldlink=http://www.me.com/> </item><item> <entry number=01name=travisdate=01.08.02message=hello worldlink=http://www.me.com/> </item> i want it to display as follows: <item> <entry number="01" name="travis" date="01.08.02" message="hello world" link="http://www.me.com/";> </item> <item> <entry number="01" name="travis" date="01.08.02" message="hello world" link="http://www.me.com/";> </item> now it is writing to the file I want perfectly....but but but I need to add quotes around the attributes and spaces between each attribute, and a line break before each item what do I need to add to $Entry to get that to display correctly -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
