132591 Posted October 22, 2006 Share Posted October 22, 2006 Is it possible to use a php form to edit xml? I was thinking something like this. <html><head><title>xml editor</title></head><body><form method="post"><input type="text" name="xml_code" /><input type="submit" value="change xml file" /></form><?php$fp = fopen("edited.xml", "w");fwrite($fp, $_POST['xml_code']);?></body></html> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhecht Posted October 22, 2006 Share Posted October 22, 2006 very very close, but wrong;you might want to do it like this: <form action="otherPage.php" method="post"><textarea name="text"></textarea><br/><input type="submit" value="submit" name="submit"/></form> otherPage.php is as followed: <?phpif(isset($_POST['text'])){ $file = file_get_contents("edited.xml") or die("could not open edited.xml"); $file .= $_POST['text']; file_put_contents("edited.xml",$file) or die("Could not write to file");}else{ echo "you have come here not of how you are suppposed to... go the ###### away";]?> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
