Having trouble writing to file

[PhoenixDown]

I'm trying to make this script update the variable file but it's not writing.

Take a look:

Oke, i viewed the txt files, but i think tha fault is in the php. Can you or post a piece of the code, or set error_reporting(E_ALL)

Then we can see whats wrong.
My first guess is that you dont have the correct rights to files to update them through a browser. Do chmod 777 filename.txt and try again. mcvdmvs

If I'm correct, I think your problem might be because you are trying to write your variables from within a function. When you enter a function, you get a 'blank slate' in terms of variables - everything is reset (and the original values are restored when the function ends), unless you declare them or inherit them using

global

. See

http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.variables.scope.php

for more info. One solution would be to place all your variables in an array, then declare that array to be global (or pass it as an argument to your function).

Oh, and I think you might also be missing a semicolon at the end of your write string.

Finally, your file cp.php defines a function, but doesn't appear to call it (unless I missed something). You could add

submit_styles("whatever");[code]
before your [code]require

.
(By the way, what do you use $arg1 for?)

I don't know what's $arg1 is used for. That's what you told me to do in this thread: thread434-161411 did what you told me to do and I STILL can't get it to work. The variables are not writing. AIM: XCalvin1984
