Yeah, but will that just replace the data that is present already there?
I dont wanna have duplicate entries in there or i'm affraid it wont read
it. The origional code you gave worked but it just ran in a big loop.
That particular example will replace the whole file.
If you only want to replace a particular option then that's different -
but we don't know what you are trying to do.

that one value that is sent via $_POST.
What i'm trying to do is just make a web intigration to edit
shoutcast .conf files. I have everything else execpt for now like I
was saying, that code worked, I just want it to halt after it updates
that line of code.
In the simplest form:
$new_textcontent = 'post_field=' . $_POST['post_field'] . "\n";
$fp = fopen($filename, 'w');
fputs($fp, $new_textcontent);
fclose($fp);
I'd suggest cleaning up $_POST['post_field'] before just writing it
(eg making sure it is only numbers, whatever data you actually want to
keep in it).

What do you want it to do?
We have absolutely no idea exactly what you're trying to achieve -
that was just a guess because you're posting a form and want the new
values written to a file.

Ok, The fix is just doing something like this...
list($variable, $data) = explode("=", $x);
But now my problem is trying to figure out how to update that
data with <form> post ect...
So the main page would get
MaxUser=32
It would read that info and put it in to a form field, which I have.
Now I gotta get it to take and make it so that a new value can be
put in that field and updated back in to the text file. I have
searched all over google for about 4 hrs looking for something
like this but no go, any help would be appricated.
This is a simple example but it should work for you:
$new_textcontent = "";
foreach($_POST as $area => $value) {
$new_textcontent .= $area . "=" . $value . "\n";
}
$fp = fopen($filename, 'w');
fputs($fp, $new_textcontent);
fclose($fp);

How about posting your solution as well? Maybe someone will
find it useful.

I'm trying to figure out how to read specific data from a text
file that
is already written. Example
MaxUser=3D32
PortBase=3D8000
I want to be able to have php read them specific pieces of info
so I can
put them in to forms and update them via php.
Any help would be appreciated.
