I'm having a problem with this php file editor... It will open a text file correctly but whatever I change to it isn't saved. Where did I go wrong on this code. There is a working example here.

PHP Code:


			
<?php

$save = $_GET['save'];

$file = $_GET['file'];

if (empty($save)) {

    if(file_exists($file))

     {    

    $fp = fopen($file , "r");

    $content = fread($fp, filesize($file));

    $content = ereg_replace("<", "<", $content);

    $content = ereg_replace(">", ">", $content);

    fclose($fp);

    }

    ?>

    <form method="post" action="<?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] ?>">

    File: <input type="text" name="file" value="<?php echo $file?>" class="border" /><br />

    Content:<br />

    <textarea NOWRAP rows="15" cols="90" name="content" class="border"><?php echo $content?></textarea><br>

    <input name="save" type="submit" value="Save" class="button"><input type="reset" value="Clear" class="button">

    </form>

    <?php

}

else {

    $content = ereg_replace("<", "<", $content);

    $content = ereg_replace(">", ">", $content);

    $content = stripslashes($content);

    $fp = fopen($file , "w");

    fwrite($fp, $content);

    fclose($fp);

}

?>

It looks like you're querying the $_GET array when the form method is POST. Try querying $_POST['save'], $_POST['file'], etc. The file permissions must be set appropriately on *nix systems too.
