you should use $_POST['news'] instead of "$POST_['news']".
ans you also should'nt put " around variables ;)

> Hello,

> I have a block of code:

>         $success = fwrite( $fp, "$POST_['news']" );

>         if (!success)
>         {
>         echo "<p>unable to write to news.txt</p>";
>         exit;
>         }

>         Header("Location: http://archives1.mdah.state.ms.us/news.php"; );
> }
?>>

> and when I access it, I get the error:

> Parse error: parse error, expecting `T_STRING' or `T_VARIABLE' or 
> `T_NUM_STRING' in /usr/local/apache2/htdocs/updatenews.php on line 5

> and line 5 is:

>         $success = fwrite( $fp, "$POST_['news']" );

> which looks ok to me.  When I take out the " " around $POST_['news'] it 
> doesn't generate an error, but then it doesn't write anything to news.txt.  
> news.txt is owned by nobody with 755 and apache runs as nobody.

> I'd appreciate any help.  Thanks!
