Re: [PHP] fwrite() question
you should use $_POST['news'] instead of $POST_['news'].
ans you also should'nt put around variables ;)
Hello,
I have a block of code:
?php
if ($_POST['news'])
{
$fp = fopen( news.txt, w);
$success = fwrite( $fp, $POST_['news'] );
fclose($fp);
if (!success)
{
echo punable to write to news.txt/p;
exit;
}
Header(Location: http://archives1.mdah.state.ms.us/news.php; );
}
?
and when I access it, I get the error:
Parse error: parse error, expecting `T_STRING' or `T_VARIABLE' or
`T_NUM_STRING' in /usr/local/apache2/htdocs/updatenews.php on line 5
and line 5 is:
$success = fwrite( $fp, $POST_['news'] );
which looks ok to me. When I take out the around $POST_['news'] it
doesn't generate an error, but then it doesn't write anything to news.txt.
news.txt is owned by nobody with 755 and apache runs as nobody.
I'd appreciate any help. Thanks!

Re: [PHP] fwrite() question
Hi,
when I do that, nothing is written to news.txt, and I'm not sure why.
This is the entire script:
?php
if ($_POST['news'])
{
$fp = fopen( news.txt, w);
$success = fwrite( $fp, $POST_['news'] );
fclose($fp);
if (!success)
{
echo punable to write to news.txt/p;
exit;
}
Header(Location: http://archives1.mdah.state.ms.us/news.php; );
}
?
html
headtitleNews update/title/head
body bgcolor=white
pPlease make your changes below and then click submit:/p
?php
if ( $_GET['action'] = update)
{
echo form action=$PHP_SELF METHOD=POST;
echo textarea name=news rows=10 cols=50 wrap=virtual;
$fp = fopen( news.txt, 'r' );
while ( ! feof ($fp) )
{
$line = fgets( $fp, );
$line = htmlspecialchars(nl2br($line));
echo $line;
}
echo /textarea
br
input type=submit value=submit name=submit
/form;
fclose($fp);
}
?

Well find out why!
This is the entire script:
?php
if ($_POST['news'])
{
$fp = fopen( news.txt, w);
Add some error-checking to see whether fopen() was successful. See examples in
manual for details.
$success = fwrite( $fp, $POST_['news'] );
As has already been pointed out you don't need the double-quotes.
And it should be $_POST['news'].
fclose($fp);
if (!success)
This should be: if (!$success)
And please trim your post!
