Ok, so here is my problem. I'm making a telephone registry that lets a user add information such as first/last name, address, zipcode, state, and telephone number.
Then they save the contact. Which seems to be where my problem is. The contact is saved and their information is posted. A file is created in the directory. HOWEVER for every contact I make it is making a new file for each one instead of appending it to the same file.
Then when I go to do a search by last name of my contacts it will not retrieve any of my contacts that I have saved. Everything else seems to be working correctly. I just can't get the program to put all my contacts in one file, and retrieve and saved contacts. Maybe someone can see where I'm going wrong, any help is much appreciated.
Here is my code:

</html>I ran all my code through the WDG validator and come up with no errors. Everything seems to work just fine except bringing up the contacts when I search. Been trying to figure this out for days now to no avail :).
