File Writing

[pyro.699]

Hello, im making a members area, and i need to know if this will work

if i use

$filename = '.htpasswd'
file_put_contents($filename, "pyro.699:password") or die ('could not write to file);


will that erace all the information already in the file? or will it add it underneth of the previous text...

read this.

it will help you understand how to use PHp to open and append files.

i understand php fine, i was a verry fine tuned question... will it erace all of the files current context?

Not tested, but according to the documentation it will overwrite it - if you don't set FILE_APPEND.

ahhh, leave it to kirby to get the job done ^^

so, that means i go

$filename = '.htpasswd'
FILE_APPEND($filename, "pyro.699:password") or die ('could not write to file);

No!
file_put_contents($filename, "pyro.699:password", FILE_APPEND)
