OK Guys I am an ASP guy.

I need to write a file in PHP.

The file needs to be an XML document. In ASP I just create a FileSystem Object and call the writeline method.

How would I write this in PHP?

Thanks,

Mike

The PHP equivalent to ASP's filesystem:
http://us4.php.net/manual/en/ref.filesystem.php

<?php
$fp = fopen(\"/path/to/file.txt\", 'w+');
// or
//$fp = fopen(\"c:\path\to\file.txt\", 'w+');

if ($fp) {
    fwrite($fp, \"<test1></test1>\");
    fwrite($fp, \"<test2></test2>\");
    close($fp);
}
?>

I don't remember if it appends a newline or not.

I believe you have to add \n after the first entry. Not sure myself, either.
