beginning_php thread: Writing to more than one textfile?
Message #1 by "Sandra Murphy" <sandradmurphy@y...> on Sat, 12 Oct 2002 16:49:37

I have a site that I can update by entering simple data from a form on
the web which I designed that writes to a textfile. At the moment I
write to one textfile at a time and click on submit and it works OK. When
I finish I use the back button to go back to the form and submit again to
update another file. Does anyone know if it is possible to update more
than one text file at a time. I have tried all possible ways and cannot
figure it out.
Thanks,
Sandra

Hia Sandra,
You can try catching form elements,eg:
----- begin sample.php -----
<?
if ($_POST[submit]){
$myName = $_POST[myName];
}
?>
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
<form method="post" name="formText" action="<? echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] ?>"
ENCTYPE="multipart/form-data">
<blockquote>
Give me Your name: <input type="text" name="myName" value="<? echo
$myName ?>" size="30" maxlength="100">
<input type="submit" name="submit" label="submit">
</form>
</body>
</html>
----- end sample.php -----
Good Luck!
LM
PD: You can use $_POST[myName] better than $myName variable. ;-)
