Before I reply, I want to say I've never coded ASP in my life before,
so I can't see why you wouldn't be able to figure it out, but
nevertheless....
The code seems to be serializing the request object, then returning a
little bit of XML to the browser, depending on the sucess of the
request object save operation.
Now, I'm not sure how you can do this in PHP quickly, but if you don't
need the saved files to be XML, you could use serialize($_REQUEST).
Otherwise I think you will have to loop through the request elements
and build the XML yourself, then save the file and return the relevant
XML depending on it's sucess.
Look at the code above, I've added some comments that might help you.
