How would one go about redirecting the result of an HTML page to a file in the webserver instead of the client's browser? I am trying to parse out information from an HTML result page using PHP but don't know which PHP syntax to use to redirect the HTML result into a file.

Cheers,
Paul

You can eventually try to use the prefix when using fopen.

this would requires something like :
<pre id=code><font face=courier size=2 id=code>
$str
$fh = fopen("....","r"); // The input
$fo = fopen("filename","w"; // The output
while(!feof($fh)){
fwrite($fo,fread($fh,1024));
}
</font id=code></pre id=code>

But, could you describe a little further what exactly you would like to do ?

I don't know what Paul had in mind but I would like to be able to create and email a html invoice to a customer. My invoices are created from a MySql database when a customer makes a purchase.

Thanks
Mike.
