fwrite() error

[Anon]

(I've searched through the support forum but...)

With the following code, I'm getting a blank file:

---

fopen("/www/search/$domain", "a+") or die('cant open');

chmod("/www/search/$domain", 0777) or die('cant chmod');

$string = "some text";

fputs("/www/search/$domain", "$string") or die('cant write');

fclose("/www/search/$domain") or die('cant close');

I'm getting the error:

"Unable to find file identifier 0 in /www/action.php on line 51
cant write"

Why is my text not going in? I've set the permissions for the web dir '777', the file should be writable, etc... what am I missing?

Thanks much,

Bob

Bob,

You need to write to a file handle and not a string with the filename.

example:
$fp = fopen("/www/search/$domain", "a+") or die('cant open');

chmod("/www/search/$domain", 0777) or die('cant chmod');

$string = "some text";

fputs( $fp, $string ) or die('cant write');

fclose( $fp ) or die('cant close');

hth,
