PHP | Online Notepad
- by user2947423
I recently made a Chat application in Visual Basic using PHP.
I used this code:
<?php
$msg = $_GET['w'];
$logfile= 'Chats.php';
$fp = fopen($logfile, "a");
fwrite($fp, $msg);
fclose($fp);
?>
I'm now trying to make a Online Notepad.
What i want to do is in Visual Basic create a unique ID.
That unique ID, has to be his filename.
I'm not very good with PHP so what i want to know is:
I want the unique ID to be the filename of the "Note".
Like:
$logfile= '{uniqueID.php}';
Whenever the user opens the program, it'll open his uniqueID.php file and he can edit that in my program.
Long Story Short (TL;DR)
Program generates uniqueID
uniqueID is going to be a new file; {uniqueID}.php
On next open it will check if {uniqueID}.php of him/her exists else it will make a new one.
I know this isn't really secure but it's to learn something for myself.
