Hi guys.
I've created a small newsletter application and the content of the
newsletter is stored in a DB (the HTML).
However once the newsletter is complete and the user clicks a button I
want the newsletter/html file to be created on the server. How do I go
about this?
I assume that I will use fwrite() to add the HTML to the file, I need to
know how to actually create the file before adding the content to it.
thanks in advance.

Angelo,
Does the content in the db contain HTML tags? If so you may need use
addslashes(), stripslashes(), htmlentities() and the like as you save and
retrieve content.
All you really have to do is generate any HTML to start the page, add your
content, and then closing tags and echo() or print() the whole shooting match.
You could do this with a function called CurrentIssue(). Within the
function, as you build the HTML, concatenate it to the function's internal
return variable.
Then you could simply echo CurrentIssue ;
Why do you have to generate an HTML file?
