Re: Writing to a file

The classic method is: 1.) read the whole file into an array of strings. 2.) search for the last line 3.) insert a string BEFORE the last line. 4.) write back the whole file to the same name Classic file handling does allow you to append to the end of a file, or recreate as a whole. Usually these types of editing must be done in memory, because file handling does not allow inserts, deletes.

Hello everybody, How would I go about writing stuff to a file but in between the <?php ?> tags? Example, say I have config.php as follows... <?php $hostname = "localhost"; $database = "database"; $username = "username"; $password = "password"; ?> How would I go about adding stuff at the end of the file, but before the ?> tag? -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
