writing to a file...

<?php
if(isset($_GET['newun'])) {
if(file_exists($_GET['newun'].'.txt')) {
echo 'Username already exists';
}
else {
$file = fopen($_GET['newun'].".txt","w");
fwrite($file,"$username = "$_GET['newun']"\n $password = "$_GET['newpw']);
fclose($file);
echo 'Account Created Successfully';
}
}
?>

Im trying this code but it gives me a 'parse error' at line 8. at fwrite(). How can i break out of the quotes, do some php, then back into the quotes again?

You need to use the "." operator to concatenate strings. For example -



Will echo "hello world!".

Hope this helps,

Looks to me he did that, KM, check line 7.
The problem is in the non-escaped double quotes in line 8. Put a '\' in front of them, and it should work,
Line should then look like this:

Ah good point, I misread what the quotes were doing on that line and thought he was breaking out of quotes to use a variable.
