Question

The follow is my code

<?php
ob_start();
$incoming = var_dump($_REQUEST);
$myFile = "testFile.txt";
$incoming = ob_get_content();
$fh = fopen($myFile, 'w');
fwrite($fh, $incoming);
fclose($fh);
?>

and it generates a file named testFile with the content sent to it..

So, if I navigate to http://example.com/uploads/upload_file.php?key=value

the text file will look like

array(1) {
  ["key"]=>
  string(5) "value"
}

However, all I want in it, is just value

Ive attempted changing the write call to

fwrite($fh, $incoming[0]);

However, it will just write a to the file as a is from the array(1) portion of the string.

Change your code to this:

<?php
$myFile = "testFile.txt";
$fh = fopen($myFile, 'w');
foreach($_REQUEST as $k => $v)
   fwrite($fh, $v);
fclose($fh);
?>
