Well if I don't need write permissions, then how come the program would
spit out "Can't write to *whatever*" until I put write permissions on
the file? And I am using forms that have an action of php where php
writes the data to a file somewhere....Anyone else have any ideas?

Maybe I'm missing something here, but you don't need write permissions
to
write to a file on the server with a server side script. Why not use
plain
old "forms" to have your authenticated users pass information to your
script, then have the script write it to the external file?
