Question about creating php files from a form

Hello All, I am trying to figure out how to create files when a user submits a form ... I have seen something about '*fopen*' , is that the direction I should be going? Here is what I am trying to accomplish: I am creating a program to keep track of recipes for my wife. I have have page set up where she can put the name of the recipe, the ingredients, and the amounts of each ingredient. Then she clicks "Submit" I would like a html file with the name of the recipe to be created ie *cookies.html *with a link to the cookies.html created on another page. * *I hope this makes sense, and thank you all for your time... - - Kevin
