"PHP help, if that's quite alright Gun'nor"

I've been trying to make a page with a form that points to a PHP file that updates a variable that is then displayed at the top of the form page - you know, like a bulletin board.

I ripped this code from the Freeola hit counter:

$content = "";
if (!$content) $content = "No content";
if(file_exists($content) == TRUE) {
$update = file($content);
$update = $formtext
} else {
$update = "No content";
}
$fp = fopen($content, "w");
fwrite($fp, $update); echo $update;
?>


Now, I think part of it doesn't work because of the fact that I'm trying to use text instead of integers. Am i right? Am I wrong? You tell me. Please.

I have no idea what you are talking about.
BUT.
I'd just like to say that "Pocketmonkey and the kitchen of death" is pure genius.
