I am trying to write a script that pulls data from a data base and then writes the script to be run again by php. I have added a sample below. There is a lot more to this script but in general what it does is set up new sites on a server. Would it be better to have it write the code one time and save it as a php file or write it on the fly. I hope you understand what I am asking.The script that it writes will be run by cron as root using php as a cgi not attached to the web server. $query = "SELECT pid,plan,quota,maxusers,shell,cgi,ssi,ssl,anonymousftp,bandwith FROM plans"; $result=mysql_db_query($dbName,$query); while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) { $pid=$row["pid"] ; $plan=$row["plan"] ; $quot=$row["quota"] ; $maxusers=$row["maxusers"]; echo "if (\$package == 'Pack$pid') //$plan"; echo "<br>"; echo "{"; echo "<br>"; echo "\$quota = \"$quot\";"; echo "<br>"; echo "\$nuser= \"$maxusers\";"; echo "<br>"; echo "\$baseip=&ip();"; echo "<br>"; echo "}"; echo "<br>"; }
