try creating a script with fopen(), fwrite(), etc. When you run into problems, ask here.
$filex = fopen("myfile","w"); fwrite( $filex, "write this here"); fclose($filex); -----Original Message----- From: Sebastian A. [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, April 05, 2002 10:29 AM To: PHP General List (PHP.NET) Subject: [PHP] Writing to Files Hey All, I have recently been trying to create some logs for the install script I have been making (to make it easier for me to diagnose problems) but I am wondering how to create and write to text files. I know about the fopen() and fwrite() functions, which theoretically should enable me to do this however I am not exactly sure how I should go about this. Also, I realize that there is limited formatting I can have with text, however I would like to know if its possible to control the line spacing between the entries, and whether or not its possible to indent lines. Lastly, are text files a good idea for logs? Do any of you use anything else I should be aware of?
