PHP not creating html file! HELP! parse error

benjy

if i have a simple html form like the one below....

assuming that the textarea with the name "html" contains html code. could someone pleese explain to me how i would edit the code below (which would be in the "process.php") in order for it to work because it doesnt seem to be working....

$filename = "new.html";

$fp = fopen($filename,"w");
fwrite($fp,$_POST['html']);
fclose($fp);

what i actually WANT the script to do is create a html file contain whatever the varible "html" holds

wil

<?php
import_request_variables ("GP");
if (isset($submit)){
  $filename = "new_file.html";
  $fp = fopen($filename, "w");
  $fout = fwrite($fp, $html);
  fclose($fp);
}else{
?>
<html>
<body>
<form action="text_area.php" method=post>
<textarea name="html"></textarea>
<input type="submit" name="submit">
</form> 
</body>
</html>
<?php
   }
?>

This is a self posting form called "text_area.php"
