Using php to create or touch a file, first checks to see if it already exists.

PLAIN TEXT

CODE:

<?php
//set the filename or passed from form argument
$filename = "/path/filenane.ext";
//does the file exist?
if (!file_exists($filename)) {
//create the filename
touch($filename);
//set permissions
chmod($filename,666);
}
?>

Just testing a new code hi-lighter plugin before posting any more complex code snippets.

PLAIN TEXT

CODE:

<?php
echo $filename ;
?>

Finally found one that actually handles the code funtion properly with WP 2.0.2! The iG:Syntax Hiliter works flawlessly
