Here is a function I use to write data to a file (It is similar to PHP 5's
file_put_contents but works for those who don't have a PHP 5 installation:)
function file_put_contents($filename, $data, $file_append = false) {
$fp = fopen($filename, (!$file_append ? 'w+' : 'a+'));
if(!$fp) {
trigger_error('file_put_contents cannot write in file.', E_USER_ERROR);
return;
};
fputs($fp, $data);
fclose($fp);
};
in addition to using the above code, be sure that you are writing to a
folder in which you have write permissions.
Once the function is available to your code you can write your data in a
manner like this:
file_put_contents('/root/directory/pathtoyourfile/mydata.txt',$filecontent);
