Config builder

[eloi_egon]

Wanting to learn something new i was thinking of creating a game config builder with PHP, but as I am a beginner on PHP i wanted your input.

What the config builder must do is the following

• Use a normal HTTP form to let the user select configuration options
• After pressing on get the config button the php script needs to create a config file depending on the choices made on the forum
• Compile the config file
• And upload it to the web user.

Can anybody tell me how to start and how to do this?

Any specific reason to upload the config file ? You can create on the file from the form submitted by the users and store in a config file against the user id. Call it every time the user logs in to the site.

I didnt mean that it must be uploaded. What i meant was to enforce the browser to ask the visitor to save the config file (config.cfg) rather than opening it
