lets say you have a file where you want to insert a string into an existing file at a specific location
put a key into the file, where you want the new text appear
i.e.
<!--INSERT-->
for this to work this has to be on one line - and on its own
then use this snippet to insert the new data at this keypoint
<?
$insert_key = '<!--INSERT-->';
$old_data = file('path/to/file');
$new_data = 'text to write in to the file';
for($x=0;$x<count($old_data);$x++)
{
if($old_data[$x] != $insert_key)
{
$string .= $old_data[$x];
}else{
$string .= $insert_key."\n".$new_data."\n";
}
}
// write $string to file
?>
