creating files on server?

DeveloperX

How can I do this?

I want to have a page that is only accessible with
a password,
that has 3 textboxs, and a button to submit the data.

first textbox is the filename,
second is the file's contents.
I want to upload to the url specified in box 3.

Is this possible?
And if it is, is there anyone that wouldn't mind helping me make this?

Thanks in advance.

If I understand you correctly, you want a simple password protected page to display a webform. Then you want your visitor to upload a file to a specific location on your forum. Am I correct?

If I'm correct then this is pretty simple.

For the password protected page you can do two things, Protect the directory with .htaccess for that you simple place the page you want to protect in the protected directory.

HOWEVER, if you want to protect individual pages, then the best way that I know is SESSIONS and MySQL database.

I want to have a form that creates a text file onto my webserver.

I don't know much php, I'd like all the help I can get.
This is for personal use.
I have the php4 bible book, but I couldn't find anything that 'stepped' me through this task.
If anyone wouldn't mind giving me a hand, I would really appreciate it.

Thanks.

PS. Anyone who helps me write this little script, will get credit for it.

You said that you want your page to be password protected right?

In your reply to my reply you didn't answer that...

What you're asking is pretty easy but it does require some coding and I need to know a little more information.

If you want to email me directly you can email me at my email address and I will help you.
