Re: please help with this simple problem

it works now, only it's earasing everything and then writing to the file. i think we have almost got this figured out. here's what the code looks like for the entire tag... ----------------------------------- <? if ($message) { /* uncomment the next two lines to strip out html from input */ $name = strip_tags($name); /* $message = strip_tags($message); */ $message = ereg_replace("\r\n\r\n", "\n<P>", $message); $date = date("l, F j Y, h:i a"); $message = "<font size=2 face=verdana><b><a href=mailto:$email>$name</a> </b><font size=1> -- $date</font>\n <blockquote>\n $message\n </blockquote></font>\n<hr noshade color=white size=1 width=100%>\n"; $fname = basename($PHP_SELF) . ".comment"; $fsize = filesize($fname); $fp = fopen(basename($fname),"w+"); $data = fread($fp,$fsize); fwrite($fp,$message); fwrite($fp,$data); fclose($fp); } @readfile(basename(($PHP_SELF . ".comment"))); ?> -------------------- ""adam"" <adam@wangallery.com> wrote in message news:99cmfj$mai$1@toye.p.sourceforge.net... > i am coding a simple script to post a text area into a file. it works, but > it posts it at the bottom and i wanted to have it post to the top of the > text already there.. > > here's a snip of the important part of the script: > > $fp = fopen (basename($PHP_SELF) .
