Ok, here is a quick simple solution, im pretty sure there must be a better way to do this but anyways hope it helps you:

On one side theres test.txt (CHMOD this file to 777)

Quote:

I added other random stuff just to simulate that there's more data than the one we are updating

Code:

define("NAMEOFAPP", "SOME APP");
define("KEYWORDS", "Keyword,Stuff,Etc");
define("DESCRIPT", "This is my description.");
define("SOMETEXT", "Blah Blah Blah");

$szVar = "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit"

$iSum = 1 + 2;

define("SOMETHING","Another thing");

And then the little script:

PHP Code:


			
// Define an array with the new values you want to write.
$aNewValues = array(
                      "NAMEOFAPP" => "This is the new name of my APP",
                      "KEYWORDS"  => "OTHER Keywords,Stuff,Etc",
                      "DESCRIPT"  => "This is my NEW description.",
                      "SOMETEXT"  => "A NEW Blah Blah Blah",
                   );

    $fName     = 'test.txt';
    $fHandle   = fopen($fName,"r");
    $szContent = fread($fHandle,filesize($fName));

    // Simple foreach with regEX to find/replace the content
    foreach ($aNewValues as $key => $value) 
    {

        $szNew = 'define("'.$key.'", "'.$value.'");';
        $szContent = preg_replace("/define\(\"".$key."\"\,\s?\"[A-Z,\s.]*\"\)\;/i",$szNew,$szContent);
        
    };

    //Save the new content and close
    $fHandle = fopen($fName,"w");
    fwrite($fHandle,$szContent);
    fclose($fHandle);

Cheers
