Beginner PHP Tutorial - 77 - File Handling: Writing to a File

[@thetechgeneration]

I had the same problems with MAMP. If you are using a local version of apache, you have to give your LAMP/WAMP/LAMP stack permission to write files.

[@McGavel1]

Very cool stuff. Thanks for going through this in a an easy-to-understand step-by-step fashion.

[@lorenz987]

I couldn't create a file on my webserver so had to manually change permissions (chmod) of the folder where my files were in. Even 6 years after these tutorials were made, they are still helpful!

[@paulmcneice1]

dude i know this was four months ago but what i did was (on mac) Open applications folder Locate XAMPP folder Right click, get info Click the 'locked' padlock symbol Enter admin password Change 'Everyone' permissions to read & write select the 'cog' icon' drop down option at the very bottom and select 'Apply to enclosed items' this will adjust the permission across all sub-folders as well. Re-lock the padlock symbol Task complete,

Hi guys, if the " " (the newline) part doesn't seem to work in your program, try " " instead. It works for me :)

So if i wanted to make a submit button inside index.html would it be and this would make whats in file.php write to the text file as well?

[@KrizaIid117]

As long as I know, there's no METHOD="LINK" for a FORM element, so you should use an anchor with href: Execute file.php And yes, this will execute whatever is inside file.php.

[@vaishnaviganseh2884]

Hello Alex. I am having trouble opening the file. I get this warning when I do so. "Warning: fopen(names.txt): failed to open stream: Permission denied in /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/htdocs/services/filehandling/file.php on line 4" How am I meant to solve this issue? Please help :)

[@wavestechnology6926]

Hi there Wonderful tutorials :) is it possible (in video tutorial ) to change video number from '"79" to be "78" so the first tutorial will be "Write" and then "append" and lastly "reading" when you watch first file then "reading " there is code not clearing but cleared in the "append" video . Thanks indeed :)

[@jhimsonraypamisa5628]

[@brunoribeiro1383]

It is backslash above your enter key, not the forward slash

[@Dalwanaage]

Good tuts. Thanks the Thenewboston and Alex.

[@sunkyamzat7732]

[@lahavs10]

If for anyone the linebreak doesn't work, use the.PHP_EOL instead.

[@movie627]

if or doesn't work for you! Just use PHP_EOL
