Ok I think this is the last thing... I tried the $email thing and it looks like its gonna work. heres the problem though.
Code:
// Write $somecontent to our opened file.
if (fwrite($handle, $somecontent) === FALSE) {
echo "Cannot write to file ($filename)";
exit;
}
I changed that to this
Code:
// Write $somecontent to our opened file.
if (fwrite($handle, $name, $email, $VideoTitle, $Description) === FALSE) {
echo "Cannot write to file ($filename)";
exit;
}
Is that correct it doesnt appear so, because when I tried it it didn't roll.

You have to place the variables in the variable $somecontent (or any other variable that you want as long as it gets passed to the fwrite function). Have a look at the following:
Code:
<?php
$filename = 'data.txt';
$name = $_POST['name'];
$email = $_POST['email'];
$VideoTitle = $_POST['VideoTitle'];
$Description = $_POST['Description'];
$somecontent = <<<HERE
------------------------
$name
$email
$VideoTitle
$Description
------------------------
HERE;
// Let's make sure the file exists and is writable first.
if (is_writable($filename)) {
// In our example we're opening $filename in append mode.
// The file pointer is at the bottom of the file hence
// that's where $somecontent will go when we fwrite() it.
if (!$handle = fopen($filename, 'a')) {
echo "Cannot open file ($filename)";
exit;
}
// Write $somecontent to our opened file.
if (fwrite($handle, $somecontent) === FALSE) {
echo "Cannot write to file ($filename)";
exit;
}
echo "Success, wrote ($somecontent) to file ($filename)";
fclose($handle);
} else {
echo "The file $filename is not writable";
}
?>
Hope this helps.

It does help a little but i get this instead:
Success, wrote ( '' , '' , '' , '' ,) to file (data.txt)
here is the somecontent code i put in:
Code:
$somecontent = " '$name' , '$email' , '$VideoTitle' , '$Description' ,";
Edit:
If it helps i also tried with out the apostrophees ' those things...
-
Are your form field names "name", "email", "VideoTitle", and "Description"? Also, make sure you are passing the form via POST method.
-
Code:
<?php
$filename = 'data.txt';
$name = $_POST['name'];
$email = $_POST['email'];
$VideoTitle = $_POST['VideoTitle'];
$Description = $_POST['Description'];
$somecontent = " '$name' , '$email' , '$VideoTitle' , '$Description' ,"; //THIS PART!
// Let's make sure the file exists and is writable first.
if (is_writable($filename)) {
// In our example we're opening $filename in append mode.
// The file pointer is at the bottom of the file hence
// that's where $somecontent will go when we fwrite() it.
if (!$handle = fopen($filename, 'a')) {
echo "Cannot open file ($filename)";
exit;
}
// Write $somecontent to our opened file.
if (fwrite($handle, $somecontent) === FALSE) {
echo "Cannot write to file ($filename)";
exit;
}
echo "Success, wrote ($somecontent) to file ($filename)";
fclose($handle);
} else {
echo "The file $filename is not writable";
}
?>
I will also confirm that my form is using post and all the names are what they are
-
What should I put in for the php code?
-
The php script you posted above is fine, just make sure that the form fields have the same names as those that you are calling in this part of the php script:
Code:
$name = $_POST['name'];
$email = $_POST['email'];
$VideoTitle = $_POST['VideoTitle'];
$Description = $_POST['Description'];
-
Ok it still isn't working. here is the code i have for both the form and the status page.

thats the submition page submition.php
here is the status page status.php
PHP Code:
<?php
$filename = 'data.txt';
$name = $_POST['name'];
$email = $_POST['email'];
$VideoTitle = $_POST['VideoTitle'];
$Description = $_POST['Description'];
$somecontent = " '$name' , '$email' , '$VideoTitle' , '$Description' ,"; //THIS PART!
// Let's make sure the file exists and is writable first.

// The file pointer is at the bottom of the file hence
// that's where $somecontent will go when we fwrite() it.
if (!$handle = fopen($filename, 'a')) {
echo "Cannot open file ($filename)";
exit;
}
// Write $somecontent to our opened file.
if (fwrite($handle, $somecontent) === FALSE) {
echo "Cannot write to file ($filename)";
exit;
}
echo "Success, wrote ($somecontent) to file ($filename)";
fclose($handle);
} else {
echo "The file $filename is not writable";
}
?>
I really hope thats not right
-
Those single quotes are bothering me...
PHP Code:
$somecontent = " '".$name."' , '".$email."' , '".$VideoTitle."' , '".$Description."' ,"; //THIS PART!
-
ok so I entered it and I still don't have any difference other than " , " , " ,
