Need an idea --

[Anon]

I have created a form that allows a user to enter content and then submit it and it will update an html page with the data. The problem I'm having is figuring a way to save or rename the file (with the submitted content) permanently so I can refer to the file. At this point, the data displays fine but I want to save the file.
I think my options are writing/creating a new file and writing to it or storing the content in a DB and pulling it later.

Any suggestions or further explanation?

thanks

If I have understand what you want to do, I think that the best (and easy) way is to use a Database where save data.

MySQL is a good one.

May be you have to get rid of some SQL and MySQL commands (or commands of the database you are going to use).

You can also do the same with files and arrays but it seems more hard for me.

Your options are to store the data in the filesystem or to store the data in a database. Which approach are you using? Where are you having a problem?

I think the best approach to this is to write and create a file that resides in the file system (or on the server -- whichever.) I guess I'm looking for a little help writing the new file with the variable info. I'm looking into the fputs() function at the moment.
