Ok, The fix is just doing something like this... list($variable, $data) = explode("=", $x); But now my problem is trying to figure out how to update that data with <form> post ect... So the main page would get MaxUser=32 It would read that info and put it in to a form field, which I have. Now I gotta get it to take and make it so that a new value can be put in that field and updated back in to the text file. I have searched all over google for about 4 hrs looking for something like this but no go, any help would be appricated.

This is a simple example but it should work for you: $new_textcontent = ""; foreach($_POST as $area => $value) { $new_textcontent .= $area . "=" . $value . "\n"; } $fp = fopen($filename, 'w'); fputs($fp, $new_textcontent); fclose($fp);

I'm trying to figure out how to read specific data from a text file that is already written. Example MaxUser=3D32 PortBase=3D8000 I want to be able to have php read them specific pieces of info so I can put them in to forms and update them via php.
