Question

I’ve been looking around the official php documentation but I’m unable to find what I’m looking for.

http://php.net/manual/en/function.parse-ini-file.php

I just want a function to edit and read the value from the php ini file, for instance,

[default_colors]
sitebg = #F8F8F8
footerbg = #F8F8F8
link = #F8F8F8
url = #F8F8F8
bg = #F8F8F8
text = #F8F8F8
border = #F8F8F8

lu_link = #F8F8F8
lu_url = #F8F8F8
lu_bg = #F8F8F8
lu_text = #f505f5
lu_border = #F8F8F8

1. How do I read the value belonging to “lu_link” or “footerbg”?
2. How to I write a new value for these places?

The PEAR Config_Lite package can do almost all the work (both reading and writing) for you super-easily. Check it out here: http://pear.php.net/package/Config_Lite
