Can someone please help me build or have a tutorial on a simple php script that writes to a text file, or even Access db?  
I cant seem to find a tutorial on this. All I want is for people to be able to sign up their names… I dont want to use mySQL tho… thanks for your help!:love:

this will show you how to use Flash and PHP to write to a text file. If you don’t want to use Flash, then just skip that step:
