It seems that you forgot the quotes inside your html statements. Like:
print "<form name=\"myform\" action= \"fileio.php\">";
etc...

I am looking for a way to automatically enter data into a web form and
extract the result of the search to a mysql database. The information I am
trying to retrieve resides on a separate server/site that I have no control
over. The only access is through the web pages/forms.
I am running PHP 4.0.4/Apache/MySQL on WinNT.
Thanks
Do you get any error ???
what error do you get ,
may be script error or else also
it may be the security of the server which may be having readonly rights
for internet users
if possible give the script and what error does it give??

Ok feelings are also welcome :)
yes the script will be running 24 hours a day 7 days a week. I need the
script to pick up the changes I make. I assumed that php would cashe the
script it was curtly running and there for not pick up any changes I made
while I was running it. which is what I need it to do.

Whats the best way to make a completely random, unique code in the format "ABCD-1234"
where each of the 8 characters can be alphanumerc; 0-9,A-Z... I thought about
generating a 36^4 number, converting to to base '36', and repeating the process.
What's a good way to ensure the code is not repeated, though?
