You can also delete files using unlink() as long as the directory has
the correct permissions.

file access is fairly straight forward in PHP - as an example:
$outfile = "<b>Some HTML text</b>";
$fh = fopen("default.html", 'w') or die("can't create default.html
file"); fwrite($fh, $outfile); fclose($fh);
will open a file, write the contents of $outfile to the file, and then
close the file or die with an error message if it fails. You can just
tie this in with the submit button. There's an example of this (loading
a config file) at www.monkeysailor.co.uk/scanui/config.php
hope this helps
