Edit html file with php

julioc

Hi all,
I'm wondering if it possible somehow to edit a html file with php.
What I'm looking for is the way to change information in a html file.
Thanks in advance

Remote HTML files, NO ( Unless you're doing it over FTP or something... )

Local HTML files, sure.
www.php.net/fopen
www.php.net/fread
www.php.net/fwrite
www.php.net/fclose

Well the html files are on the remote site, we are trying to build a kind of knowledge d.b where each author of the document will have the ability to change information in the document.

Then youre best bet might be the FTP functions, or some kinda fancy SOAP interface maybe to let you edit things remotely, ie a server and client script that communicates to make the changes... if that makes any sense...

Theres no way to change the script over HTTP though, at least not taht I know of...
