hot to create file on the webserver

[Anon]

Hi

What do I need to do to let PHP create files on the webserver? I want to be able to add files through a PHP page instead of having to do it manually.

Do I need to create a user that has permissions to create/edit files on the server and then set the script to run as that user?

Thanks.

THe script runs as whatever user the web server is running as. You want a directory that the web server can use.

To write the file, see the manual regarding fopen()
