Writing a file

[bluewonder]

I'm having probelms figuring out how to write some files to disk in php. What I need to do is take varaibles from a form on the web, and write them to an array in a file. The file (that is writen too) needs to look like this:
<?
$common_included=1;
$showinfo=array (showname, showacronym, showdate, evencenter, location, days, showhours, howmany, numberofsessions,
passnumber, boothsize);
?>

...having the all the varaibles (ie showname, showacronym etc,) replaced with the ones from the form. I noramlly would write these to a database, but I don't have one on my current webhost. Is this do-able? or what would be the best way to do this?
Thanks!

if($file=fopen("/home/dir/file.txt","a"))
{
$data = $showname .showacronym $showdate.$evencenter.$location.$days, $showhours.$howmany.$numberofsessions,
$passnumber.$boothsize;
fputs($file,"$data\n");
fclose($file);
}
else
{
echo("file write error);
}
search the manual fopen for different option
this opens in append mode.

good day

thanks! that helps a lot. I actully might use the file() function to write an array to a file, then call from that... thanks!
