two questions about writing to textfiles

[85882]

hey,

I have two questions...

1.) How do I open a textfile and write text to the beginning of the textfile using php?

2.) How do I open a textfile and replace all the text of the textfile with what I have in a textbox using php?

You can open a file using the fopen() function: http://us2.php.net/fopen

You can write to a file using the fwrite() function: http://us2.php.net/fwrite

There are different modes you can open the file in: "R", "W", "A" (read, write, and append)

If you read the two links I gave you, then you should be able to figure this all out. If not, just post the code you have developed and we will be glad to help you...
