Hey guys!

My server's mail script has been very unreliable so I want to replace a little script I have running. It's basically a little webform that sends the input to my email.

Instead, I want it to replace the script with a script that updates a little txt file instead of email. ie, I have a form like

Name:

email:

comments:

[sumbit]

and whenver someone fills this out it inserts that much in a txt file

How would I go around doing this? A very simple example will be very nice!

thansk very much!

Here is a simple one:

PHP Code:

<?
// If the form has been submitted -------------------------
if (isset($_POST['Submit']))
{
$name = $_POST['name'];
$email = $_POST['email'];
$comments = $_POST['comments'];
 
// Disable HTML Code Insert into text file --------------
 
$name = str_replace("<", "&lt;", $name);
$name = str_replace(">", "&gt;", $name);
$email = str_replace("<", "&lt;", $email);
$email = str_replace(">", "&gt;", $email);
 
$comments = str_replace("<", "&lt;", $comments);
$comments = str_replace(">", "&gt;", $comments);
 
// Write the Output to text file in append mode --------
 
$output = $name." | ".$email." | ".$comments."\n";
$fp = fopen("messages.txt", "a");
fwrite($fp, $output);
fclose($fp);
}
?>
<form action="<? echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']; ?>" method=post>
<input type="text" name="name" size=20 maxlength=50>
<input type="text" name="email" size=20 maxlength=50>
<textarea name="comments" cols="60" rows="10"></textarea>
<input type="Submit" name="Submit" value="Submit">
</form>

Copy and past the code above into notepad, and save it as something like "feedback.php". In the same directory, create a blank text file and call it "messages.txt", and CHMOD it to 777 (give it read, write and execute permission to all).

Every message will be added to the text file on a new line, and the name, email and message will be seperated by a " | ".
