Adding to a Text area and saving

Squee88

Heres my problem:
I am trying to read the text from a file already uploaded and add it to a text area to be edited. Once the data has been submited it will now save the newly edited text area to the file. I have been trying to figure this out for days but im still learning php.

<?php
if($_POST["vs2"] != '')
{
$vs2 = strtolower($_POST["vs2"]);
$time2 = strtolower($_POST["time2"]);
$date2 = strtolower($_POST["date2"]);

//Put files into an array
$vs2file = file("vs2.txt");
$time2file = file("time2.txt");
$date2file = file("date2.txt");

$vs2file_ = fopen("vs2.txt", "w");
fwrite($vs2file_, $vs2);
fclose($vs2file_);

$time2file_ = fopen("time2.txt", "w");
fwrite($time2file_, $time2);
fclose($time2file_);

$date2file_ = fopen("date2.txt", "w");
fwrite($date2file_, $date2);
fclose($date2file_);
}
?>

fclose($memberFile); ?>">
<?php
//read members from file
$members = file("war2.txt");
for($i = 0; $i < count($members); $i++)

try something like this:

<?php
if(strtoupper($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD']) == 'POST')
{
    $fp = fopen("file.txt","w");
    fwrite($fp,$_POST['file']);
    fclose($fp);
}
?>
<form action='<?=$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']?>' method='POST'>
<textarea name='file'><?=file_get_contents("file.txt")?></textarea><br>
<input type='submit' value='Save'>
</form>
