Hi,
I'm having problem with a php script writing a string to a file in a correct format.
Well, no problem with plain text. the problem comes when i type
'<a href="http://google.com">hotmail.com</a>'
when i look at the txt file, the output will be
<a href=\"google.com\">hotmail.com</a>
if you notice, there is a slash before the quote, automatically added. I'm not sure where the script goes wrong. appreciate if you can please help me out, thanks.
PHP Code:
<?php
// Function to display form
function showForm($errorMesg=false){
if ($errorMesg) $errorTextMesg = "Please enter your text!";
echo '<form action="notepad.php" method="POST"><center><p><br><br><table border="1" cellpadding="10" cellspacing="0">';
// Display message field an error if needed
echo '<tr><td>Entry:</td><td><textarea name="mesg" rows="10" cols="60"></textarea></td></tr>';
if ($errorMesg) echo "<tr><td colspan='2'>$errorTextMesg</td></tr>";
echo '<tr><td align="center" colspan="2"><input type="submit" name="updateNotepad" value="Submit"></td></tr>';
echo '<form>';
}
if (!isset($_POST['updateNotepad'])) {
showForm();
} else {
//Init error variables
$errorMesg = false;
$filename = "notepad.txt";
// $mesg = isset($_POST['mesg']) ? trim($_POST['mesg']) : '';
$Cmesg = isset($_POST['mesg']);
$mesg = $_POST['mesg'];
if (strlen($mesg)<3) $errorMesg = true;
// Display the form again as there was an error
if ($errorMesg) {
showForm($errorMesg);
} else {
// Let's make sure the file exists and is writable first.
if (is_writable($filename)) {
if (!$handle = fopen($filename, 'a')) {
echo "Cannot open file ($filename)";
echo '<form><input type="button" value="Back" onclick="history.go(-1);return false;" /></form>';
exit;
}
// Write $mesg to our opened file.
if (fwrite($handle, "$mesg\n") === FALSE) {
echo "Cannot write to file ($filename)";
echo '<form><input type="button" value="Back" onclick="history.go(-1);return false;" /></form>';
exit;
}
echo "Success, wrote ($mesg) to file ($filename)";
fclose($handle);
echo '<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="5;url=notepad.php">';
} else {
echo "The file $filename is not writable";
echo '<form><input type="button" value="Back" onclick="history.go(-1);return false;" /></form>';
}
}
}
?>
