Re: Newbie Questions

1. You can't. The only thing you can do is by creating a new file: - create new destination file (i.e. as temp) - read part from source file -write it to dest file - write your new data to the dest file - read further parts from source file - write them to dest file - close files - rename dest file to source file 2. You can do it with forms: <input type=text name="myvar" value="Hello World"> or URLs: <a href="myscript.php3?myvar=Hello+World"> On the next page you have $myvar available with the value assigned in the page before. For further Info refer to the manual!

Internal Hello, I'm brand new to PHP and this list, so please forgive me if my questions have been covered. 1. How do I write to a specific location in a file? All the fopen() modes that I'm aware of either write at the beginning or end of the file (or simply write over the file) I want to put data in the middle of my file. 2. Can I pass a PHP variable on an anchor tag to another php document? Thanks.
