I am trying to keep a running total of all the responses to a form I have written, but I am having trouble making it so that each response takes a new line. I have my code down below. I just want it so that it is easier to read because right now what happens is that all the responses are jammed together would like to have each one on a new line. I tried a few things and have them commented in the code and what the result was. Thanks in Advance.
<?php
if (isset($_POST['sometext']))
{
$myFile = "testFile.txt";
$thetext=$_POST['sometext'] ;//added + "
" here but all response turned to 0
writemyfile($myFile,$thetext,"a");
} else
{
$thetext="Enter text here";
}
function readmyfile($thefile)
{
$file = fopen($thefile, "r") or exit("Unable to open file!");
//Output a line of the file until the end is reached
while(!feof($file))
{
echo fgets($file). "<br />";
}
fclose($file);
}
function writemyfile($thefilename,$data,$mode)
{
$myfile=fopen($thefilename,$mode);
fwrite($myfile, $data); // added + "
" here and responses turned 0
fclose($myfile);
}
?>
