Generating Static Pages || Preserve PHP Code?

Hey all. Interesting problem here, at least for me ;--): How to generate php pages using fopen() without having php code evaluated in the written pages? For example, if build_pages.php runs a db query and, based on the result set, produces a test page using fopen(), how to avoid having php code getting evaluated? Here's an example snippet: ********************************************************************* // Set read & write paths $write_path = "C:\\apache\\htdocs\\client_site\\files\\"; $write_path = $write_path . "example_page.php"; $read_path = $doc_path . "build_pages.php"; // Read file to variable & close $fr = fopen($read_path, "r") or die("An error occurred while opening $read_path"); $text = ""; while (!feof($fr)){ $text .= fread($fr, 100000); } fclose($fr); // Create example page $fw = fopen($write_path, "wb") or die("An error occurred while opening $write_path"); // Write data to example page $make_page = fwrite($fw, $text); fclose($fw); ********************************************************************* Give a holler for more info -- I know the question is a little vague -- I'm still figuring out how to implement this solution.......... --Noah
