PHP write file from input to txt
Your form should look like this :
<form action="myprocessingscript.php" method="POST">
<input name="field1" type="text" />
<input name="field2" type="text" />
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Save Data">
</form>
and the PHP
<?php
if(isset($_POST['field1']) && isset($_POST['field2'])) {
$data = $_POST['field1'] . '-' . $_POST['field2'] . "\r\n";
$ret = file_put_contents('/tmp/mydata.txt', $data, FILE_APPEND | LOCK_EX);
if($ret === false) {
die('There was an error writing this file');
}
else {
echo "$ret bytes written to file";
}
}
else {
die('no post data to process');
}
I wrote to /tmp/mydata.txt
because this way I know exactly where it is. using data.txt
writes to that file in the current working directory which I know nothing of in your example.
file_put_contents
opens, writes and closes files for you. Don't mess with it.
