Write a regular Windows .ini file like:
; My INI-file (this is a comment line):
key = value
key2 = value2
; It even works with PHP constants (defines) in the ini file
key3 = E_ALL
Reading it in is simple, use parse_ini_file():
http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.parse-ini-file.php
You can also keep sections in the .ini file such as:
; a section name uses []
[section1]
key = value
[section2]
key = value
To write this down is easy, just do a foreach on your associative array
and write to a string that you then save into a file if you wish to
update the values here.
Warm Regards,
