Hey
I need a simple code tht does this

OKay so i have this file called nav.txt

Now i want to make a page where i can edit nav.txt ONLINE

so i need a code
tht first displays wts on nav.txt in a text area

and then a SAVE button below it
so the user can edit w.e they want in the text area and then when they press SAVE...it saves the file

Something like this would probably work:

PHP:

<?php
$loadcontent = "nav.txt";
    if($save_file) {
        $savecontent = stripslashes($savecontent);
        $fp = @fopen($loadcontent, "w");
        if ($fp) {
            fwrite($fp, $savecontent);
            fclose($fp);
print '<a href='.$_SERVER[PHP_SELF].'>Refresh</a>';
print "<html><head><META http-equiv=\"refresh\" content=\"0;URL=$_SERVER[PHP_SELF]\"></head><body>";

}
}
    $fp = @fopen($loadcontent, "r");
    $loadcontent = fread($fp, filesize($loadcontent));
    $lines = explode("\n", $loadcontent);
    $count = count($lines);
    $loadcontent = htmlspecialchars($loadcontent);
    fclose($fp);
for ($a = 1; $a < $count+1; $a++) {
$line .= "$a\n";
}
?>
<form method=post action="<?=$_SERVER[PHP_SELF]?>">
<input type="submit" name="save_file" value="Save">
<table width="100%" valign="top" border="0" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="1">
<tr>
<td width="3%" align="right" valign="top">
<pre name="lines" cols="4" rows="<?=$count+3;?>"><?=$line;?></pre>
</td>
<td width="97%" align="left" valign="top">
<textarea name="savecontent" cols="150" rows="<?=$count;?>" wrap="OFF">
<?=$loadcontent?>
</textarea>
</td>
</tr>
</table>

<br>
<input type="submit" name="save_file" value="Save">
</form>

Wow... NICE! That's very useful! Will it work with html files as well?

Yes, it will work with html files. Pretty much any file as long as it's writable, of course.
