write file with loop

[alexlundy]

Hey guys,

I was wondering if it is possible to write a txt file from a loop.

I have an array which stores picture names and descripton. I was wondering if there was a way for php to write an xml file to contain this data.

I have made simple txt files and used variables in the past, but nothing with a loop. My xml file is simple

<picture>
<desc> .............. </desc>
<file_name> ...............</file_name>
</picture>

I would like to produce code like the above for each picture. Could anyone help me with a loop or tell me if this is possible

Thanks very much

Alex

Yes, you can fopen(), then fwrite() in a loop, then fclose() after the loop is done.

However, it might be better to use the loop to create a string, then write that string to the file.
