$filenum=fopen("config.php","w");
fwrite($filenum,$configfile);
fclose($filenum);

$filenum=fopen("badwords.txt","w");
fwrite($filenum,$badwords);
fclose($filenum);

echo "Bedankt, de instellingen zijn opgeslagen.";

} else {

What does your file contain before and after the page is submited? Can you please paste it here? I would like to see what is being written to the file.

Also, please check the return values of your file functions:

// Sample code taken from docs on fwrite() at ca.php.net
$filename = 'test.txt';
$somecontent = "Add this to the file\n";

// Let's make sure the file exists and is writable first.
if (is_writable($filename)) {

// In our example we're opening $filename in append mode.
// The file pointer is at the bottom of the file hence 
// that's where $somecontent will go when we fwrite() it.
if (!$fp = fopen($filename, 'a')) {
     print "Cannot open file ($filename)";
     exit;
}

// Write $somecontent to our opened file.
if (!fwrite($fp, $somecontent)) {
    print "Cannot write to file ($filename)";
    exit;
}

print "Success, wrote ($somecontent) to file ($filename)";

fclose($fp);

} else {
    print "The file $filename is not writable";
}
