Re: [PHP] Form data is not "remembered"

Try the "GET" method in the form.

Re: [PHP] Fopen

[Klepto]

Yeah, in the following fragment...

 $fp = fopen("http://www.parentprofiles.com/clicker.php?profile_id=" .
$this-profile_id
 . "&code=1","r");

You set up $fp to be a pointer to the object, in this case, a file.  Now you
need to pull data out of it.  Um, unfortunately, I don't remember how to do
this.  If this were a pointer to a MySQL connection, it would look like
this...

mysql_fetch_row($fp)

So, when you echoed the $fp, you are echoing the pointer position in the
file.

Hope that helps...
