Chapter 2 – Reading and Writing

A couple of projects that involve reading from and writing to text files stored on the web server's hard drive.

Project 1:

Add Data from a Text File to a Web Page

A "tip of the day" script. Information is drawn from a text file into a text page. This is about the easiest content management system you can build — or use, for that matter. (See Chapter 4 for a more complicated content management system.)

Project 2:

Writing Form Data to a Text File

Maybe I should have called this project "Guest Book Script." Well, with the book at the printer, too late for that. That's what Project 2 is, though, with information being submitted by visitors to your site and stored in a text file on the server.
