PHP and TEXT FILES

Expand Post »

Hi I'm new here and new in the industry, I'm focused in designing right now... but still interested in developing dynamic websites.

I just want to ask if there is an available script that writes a text file in a FTP server then show in a scrolling text in FLASH.

I don't know IF I MAKE SENSE at all... ehe : )

like in uploading images they put the image in an FTP SERVER right, then
display it in front like a scrolling sponsors.

THANKS

GOOD DAY

Re: PHP and TEXT FILES

I'm not aware of any scripts to do this.

You're looking to create your text file.
Create a socket to your FTP server.
Send the appropriate FTP commands to Login + change DIR + upload file.

Then you will want to use actionscript to
grab the file contents from FTP server, and display them.

Thats one solution to your problem.

Cheers.

Re: PHP and TEXT FILES

$ourFileName = "testFile.txt";
$ourFileHandle = fopen($ourFileName, 'w') or die("can't open file");
fclose($ourFileHandle);
