    tried did'nt work out:
    <?php
  // create short variable names
  $tireqty = $_POST['tireqty'];
  $oilqty = $_POST['oilqty'];
  $sparkqty = $_POST['sparkqty'];
  $address = $_POST['address'];
  $filepath = $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'];
  
?>
<html>
<head>
  <title>Bob's Auto Parts - Order Results</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Bob's Auto Parts</h1>
<h2>Order Results</h2>
<?php
echo "<p>Order processed at ".date('H:i, jS F Y')."</p>";

	echo '<p>Your order is as follows: </p>';

	$totalqty = 0;
	$totalqty = $tireqty + $oilqty + $sparkqty;
	echo "Items ordered: ".$totalqty."<br />";
	$totalamount= 0.00;
	
	define('TIREPRICE', 100);
    define('OILPRICE', 10);
    define('SPARKPRICE', 4);
  $totalamount = $tireqty * TIREPRICE
				 + $oilqty * OILPRICE
				 + $sparkqty * SPARKPRICE;
	echo "Subtotal: $".number_format($totalamount,2)."<br />";
		$taxrate = 0.10;  // local sales tax is 10%
	$totalamount = $totalamount * (1 + $taxrate);
	echo "Total including tax: $".number_format($totalamount,2)."<br />";
			echo "<p>Total of order is $".$totalamount."</p>";
	echo "<p>Address to ship to is ".$address."</p>"; 
	
	$filePath = realpath(DOCUMENT_ROOT . '/../order/order.txt');
    echo $filePath;
    $fp = fopen($filePath, 'c');



  
    
?>
</body>
</html>

    I set the security to allow for files to be written and read created order/order.text uploaded to wamp server,
    still generated the error:Use of undefined constant DOCUMENT_ROOT - assumed 'DOCUMENT_ROOT' in C:\wamp\www\processorder.php on line 40.
    thanks

    sorry about that everyone, it is actually supposed to be:
      $order = $_POST['order'];
	  $DOCUMENT_ROOT = $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'];
	<?php
	 
	// open file for appending
	     $fp = fopen("$DOCUMENT_ROOT/../order/order.txt", 'w'); 
	?>

    I use a WAMP and had uploaded order. txt. I want the user to be able to write his address in the form and the input to be stored in a text file.
    but if i run the code on a broswer it generates:( ! ) Warning: fopen(C:/wamp/www//../orders/orders.txt) [function.fopen]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in C:\wamp\www\processorder.php on line. I am using a wamp (just learning the language.)
    I guess i don't have permission to to write or read a file how do i solve the problem run a windows with wamp server.
    My problem is just to know who to create a order.txt test it to know it is working so I can write to it and read from it.
    guess must have been stressed up when i wrote the first post.
    thanks

    Posted 31 Jul 2011

    Thank you all for reading my post and putting me through, I did it the other way round but when I typed into the browser I got the expected response but I still do have a question.
    Thus this mean that if i write a code that needs testing I have to save it in the www directory before running the test?
    I am quite new to all these so pardon me if i am asking all the wrong questions.
    I love you guys for free,
    biting myself for not knowing you guys a long time ago
