What does data.inc look like - does it contain the right information?

I need the file look like this; <?php $host = 'localhost'; $user = 'root'; $pwd = ''; $db = 'dvd'; ?> Here is my code so far; <?php $file = "data.inc"; $format = "%c%cphp"; $first=60; $second=63; printf($format,$first,$second); $information = $information."\$host='$server';\n"; $information = $information."\$user='$user';\n"; $information = $information."\$pwd='$pwd';\n"; $information = $information."\$dv='$db';\n"; echo $information; $fw = fopen($file,"w+") or die("Can't open file $file"); $fout = fwrite($fw,$information); fclose($fw); ?> I have tried char and printf. When I run this the <?php must be interpreted as a new php file and nothing is output. Any suggestions will be appreciated. Michael J.
