RE: [PHP] text file reading and overwrite

I can't tell you anything about your problem without knowing what's going on (error messages are helpful). As for overwriting a file, just use: fopen($filename,"w"); The "w" option tells it to open the file for writing and to truncate it to zero-length. ---Matt, XPODesigns.com -----Original Message----- From: Michael P.
