How To Read A File, Edit And Replace That File With New Changes?
I am making a enhancement to our helpdesk product. So we are using JSON for saving the Language defaults. Now I am Using PHP as a server based language. Now here is the logic of the program. Whenever our product is installed then a parser will create a HTML file which will have all the defaults from the JSON file. Now when a user changes the language then the parser will again Run and make the required changes in the JSON file and again create the HTML file and Replace it in that folder. I am not able to find a good solution for this.
Can someone help me building it. I am not able to get how to Open a file, Read it, make the changes and Replace that file.

PHP/IIS: File Read/Write OK, File Unlink Denied
I've got PHP running fine on IIS (OS: Server 2003, SP1; IIS: 6.0; PHP: 4.3.11). In PHP, the user uploads a file, which is then processed and the contents are inserted into a new file, created in PHP, onto the server. This bit works fine, the new file created by PHP is correctly stored. Later, once the user confirms the upload and PHP inserts the contents of the file into the DB, the code tries to remove the file created in PHP moments earlier, via the unlink() function. What I see on screen is the following: Permission denied I have made sure that the permissions for the Internet account that created (and is trying to delete) the file have full permissions over this particular folder and the files within it. But the user must have permission anyway, because they are able to create this file in the first place. I've looked at the permissions for the file in PHP, which read: 0666. So everthing *appears* ok to me; I can't see where the permission issue is coming from.

Edit Lines In Txt File
i am trying to write data that i have stored in a session back to a member.txt, but i am unable to work out why it wont write. It displays the data i have stored in the session ok, but it wont do the next step! I have used a similiar script in another part of my web page which works, but this one won't. From my understanding it has something to do with if statement if($data[0] == $user_id), so i might be trying to compare the previouis data to the current data stored in the txt file properly....

Can't Replace Uploaded File
I have the following problem, I have a database (MySQL) in which I can store filenames, in my script I can select a file from my hard drive that will be uploaded and stored in a directory on the server. So far so good. Now when I want to replace the file by another one and use the same script it won't replace the file. Does anybody outthere know what the problem might be?? The following code is my part of the script that does the uploading: if ($img1_name != "") { copy("$img1", "/home/sitename/www/dbasepictures/$img1_name") or die ("Couldn't copy the file!"); } else { die("No input file specified"); }

Search File For Line And Replace With Update
I am trying to search through a file for a line. My line that I will be searching is in a cron flat file. I need to search that file for a line simirlar to: 59 23 * * * wget -q http://www.site.com/runPage.php?usr=name When the line is found, I need to make changes to it. I have read the file into a variable with fread, is that the best way to get this information for the type of search and replace I am trying to do? From what I have read in past posts, it seems like strstr is a quick way to go or would strpos be? Or, do I have to do more than that?
How To Replace Define In A Require File With Mysql?

Read Log File With PHP?
It turns out that opendir and a number of other cool PHP features are disabled by my host. I've had to deal with similar issues before and have worked around them (that's part of the fun.) What I am trying to do is create a PHP file which will delete specific files from a directory that are more than 24 hours old. My question is this: Is this possible without readdir and opendir? Can I use fopen and fread as alternatives in my solution? The key problem that I see is that I can read the log file but where do I begin to parse the log file into file names and dates? Typical entries in my log file would look like this: 2007/05/02 2:00:31 : File http://www.example.com/myFile.zip Sent to someone@example.com 2007/05/02 2:08:31 : File http://www.example.com/myPic.jpg Sent to someone2@anotherexample.com I guess I would have to somehow define the format of each entry? If so how would I do this. Is this idea even realistic with PHP?

Can't Get Php To Read Ini File.
My configuration is Apache/2.0.59 (Unix) mod_ssl/2.0.59 OpenSSL/0.9.7d PHP/5.0.4 on Solaris 10. phpinfo() lists the location of php.ini as /usr/local/apache/conf and my php.ini file is there but for some reason it does not appear to be being read by php. I have defined things such as upload_tmp_dir in that file yet even with restarting apache I am not seeing this reflected in phpinfo().

Read First 10 Lines From A File
I have an ASCII file with each data record on a separateline. Each field is delimited with a TAB (ASCII 9) character. Now i want to read the first 10 lines and show them on my site. This is what i already have reading the first line: $fname = "http://www.somedomain.com/file.txt"; $fd = fopen($fname, "r"); if ($fd) { if (!feof ($fd)) { $buffer = fgets($fd, 4096); $field = split(chr(9), trim($buffer)); $field0 = "$field[0]"; $field1 = "$field[1]"; } fclose($fd); } echo ("$field0 - $field1"); How can i do this voor the first 10 lines?
Read A File Of String Into What?
Pardon the simple question, but I have just begun to learn PHP. So far so good - all the examples in my books actually work. One thing that none of them address is how to read a file of strings (like names or URLs or whatever) into something so that they can be deleted, modified or a new one added. In a language like Perl/TK or Delphi a listbox is used if you want to edit line by line or a memo box if you want to edit like you are in Kwrite. All the examples assume that I want to enter data into a Text area or Listbox by keyboard, then read it back in. Never the other way around. I can use a Fget routine and read the file to the screen, but not to anything in which I can edit yet. So far I have learned a ton of stuff trying, but haven't made it work yet. Should I be reading the data into a Textarea, a Listbox or something else?
File Read Problems !
I am trying to read files from a remote location and only get part of the file. I do not get any errors but seem to not get the last few bytes. Why? I thought that it was because of magic_quotes, so I tried to set that right ... set_magic_quotes_runtime(0); $fd = fopen ($filelink,"rb"); $contents = fread ($fd, 100000); fclose ($fd); set_magic_quotes_runtime(get_magic_quotes_gpc());

Read From File Into Array
I see what my problem is but not sure what I need to change. I'm reading a single number from a file that's fed into an array but the array doesn't want to print out its output. $oncall=array(); $oncall[1]="msims"; $oncall[2]="dtilbury"; $oncall[3]="jma"; $oncall[4]="jweaver"; $oncall[5]="cirwin"; $filename="oncall/.oncall"; $n=file_get_contents($filename); echo "$oncall[$n]"; This prints nothing. But when I comment out the file_get_contents and simply do $n="2" the array prints out dtilbury like it should. My guess is the error lies in how $n is being assigned from the file_get_contents. Any thoughts?
