Help: Selections in HTML form to wite .doc

[Smoothas]

Hello,

I'me trying to find out if its possable for a webpages form ( consising of YES and NO options ) to construct a Word Document for download based on the users selections.

I've already had help in contruction something similar ( creating a xml file via PHP code, and a page that displays "Tips" in a DIV defined box someehere else on the screen.

What, I think, I'm after is a combination of the 2.
I already have the webform up and working, but when, say, the user says YES to the question "Do you a business ?", i would like the code to "write" a paragraph of predefined text to a .doc file. If they answer YES to a second question, then that paragraph needs to be written.
The document would need to be create at the end of answering all he questions correct, otherwise i'm in the possition of trying to remove paragaphs.

This file then needs to be made accessable for the user to download.

Any ideas on how I can do this ?

Thanks

Using PHP you could create a txt file or even a Rich text file, but creating an actual office DOC file is going to be a little harder.

But you can try using the fopen, fread, fwrite command sin PHP to write to a file. Once the file is written, yo can show a link to it for download.
