Including file*.*

[Anon]

Hello!

Some Beginners Qs
Not having Database access makes innovative.

I would like to "include" files all starting the same way (like something120300.txt and something051000.txt etc.)

These files result from a form, saved into a file starting with a given name + date (e.g. 120300) + .txt (or other extension)

So my questions:

1. How would I go about "saving" the file
   
   to get the date in the file-name

2. How would I include any file (the name of
   which is) starting in some way
   (Just like in a suchandsuch*.txt
   filesearch)

Thanx for your time and help

have a look at http://www.php.net/manual/function.dir.php for how to open directories,
http://www.php.net/manual/ref.regex.php for how to pattern match the directory listing,
and http://www.php.net/manual/ref.filesystem.php for how to open and/or save those files.
