PHP help

[JD]

Heya guys,

I need a script that will get the info that someone filled in on my site, makes a new .html file with their info and post it on an other part of my site.

Like this:

Someone fills in that their char name is Dopestar.
He clicks submit.
The information is posted on www.mysite.com/applications/charname.html

That's what I need,
If you can do it please tell me

Its been a while since I touched PHP but I think your looking for something along the lines of:

Create a webpage with a form on similar to below

<form action="signup.php" method="get">
Character: <input type="text" name="character" />
<input type="submit" />
</form>

Next create a page called signup.php And add something similar:

<?php
$GetCharacter = $_GET["character"];
$FileName = $GetCharacter + ".html";
$FileHandle = fopen($FileName, 'w') or die("can't open file");
fclose($FileHandle);
?>

As I say its been a while since I did anything with PHP but that may be close to what your looking for.

Exalier, here, a link of what info I want to get and where I want it to go ^^

hxxp://www.theholylegion.net/Application.html

I want all that info to be posted in a file called charname.html when they click on submit.
How do I do that?...

[exalier]

Hmm, in that case you may want to work with a Mysql database, instead of having the html file. In which case the url would look something similar too:

www.theholylegion.net/Application/applications?character="Character"

If you would like I can take a look at knocking a simple script up, but I cant promise anything.

This is just a stab in the dark and its probably completely wrong but couldn't you essentialy use the same theory from one of the many phishing systems for world of warcraft accounts? Just food for thought, probably wrong.

Phishing systems rely on a file that already exists. You need something to create a file, which fopen does.

<?php
$CharName = $_GET["character"];
$myFile = $CharName + ".html";
$fh = fopen($myFile, 'w') or die("Can't open file");
$stringData = "Char Name: " + $_GET['character'];
fwrite($fh, $stringData);
$stringData = "Char Class:" + $_GET['class'];
fwrite($fh, $stringData);

//Repeat the two lines for writing as many times as needed

fclose($fh);
?>

That should do you.
