[itunes66]

(this file wil be in a admin section)

i need a script that
creates,edits,and deletes files
i will edit/create/delete files through a form

and the file will be done by the url

eg if i wanted to edit the file index.php in my home directory
i would type
index.php?mode=edit&file=index.php

the first index.php file

index.php?mode=edit&file=index.php
(⁾
will reside in a directory called admin

the second index.php file

index.php?mode=edit&file=index.php
-------------------------------(⁾
will reside in the home directory

I'm not entirely sure why you keep giving details about what you want it to do. Are you saying you want us to teach you how to do the entire thing by tomorrow? Considering you appear to have no code yet, that doesn't seem likely.

If you do have code and you have an issue with it feel free to post it, along with a description of the problem.

i have no code i thought about using file_get_contents()
but how would i make the diffrent sections of the file show up in the form

[mtmosier]

That depends on the file. If it's html of a very predictable nature (ie, generated by you), you could use strpos and substr to parse it. If it's a bit less predictable you could use regular expressions. If it's an ini file you could use parse_ini_file.

all files wil be php and i might have an option to have the file password protected

i might have a way to do things a little better

store the title and name in $name
store specials eg login scripts/includes in $special
so on and so on
