fput

[chrisleon]

The code below works great, except, it won't write more than one line to the file. If I re-submit with new information, it posts it, but I was hoping to keep a log of all the information submitted. So therefore, I need it to go to the next line after a submit, and write the information.

<?php
$NEWFILE = fopen("newdata.txt","w"); // open newdata.txt for writing
$data = "$Customer|$Item_Code|$Invoice_Number|$Date_Received";

fputs($NEWFILE,"$data\n"); // write line to newdata.txt

fclose($NEWFILE);
?>

thanks for any help you can give

Check in manual what "a" does when used as a second argument in fopen.

I looked it up and it works, and I thank you for the advice. I feel like an idiot, but at least I learned something new.

Thanks for all your help

try this
<?php
$NEWFILE = fopen("newdata.txt","w+"); // open newdata.txt for writing
$data in append mode = "$Customer|$Item_Code|$Invoice_Number|$Date_Received";

fputs($NEWFILE,"$data\n"); // write line to newdata.txt

fclose($NEWFILE);
?>
