Something like an INI editor or a DelimitedText-Editor


Posted on 16th Feb 2014 07:03 pm by admin

Hi all,

Am very, very, very new to PHP and not sure if I should be posting this to a Javascript or PHP forum so I posed the question on both FORUM.

Did you know?Explore Trending and Topic pages for more stories like this.
Basically, I am looking for something like an INI editor of sort that I can use to let users modify delimited files which are in actual fact my INI file for my scripts on a UNIX box:

Below is an example of what the delimited file may look like:

Servername:OS:IPAddress:TypeofServer:Description:
SERVER01:AIX:1.2.3.1:PROD:Online Server:
SERVER02:Solaris:1.2.3.2:DEV:Online Dev Server:
SERVER03:Linux:1.2.3.3:TEST:Online Test Server:
SERVER04:Windows:1.2.3.4:PROD:Timesheet PROD Server:
SERVER05:HP:1.2.3.5:PROD:Candidate PROD Server:

I want to be able to provide the user with the list of directory on the server, and when they click on one of the files on the directory listing, it should allow them to load the file in some kind of form based web page and then they can make the changes and save the file. At the moment, users are going to the server and modifying the file manually via UNIX's vi and it is very prone to errors.

Does anyone have an example of what I am wanting to do?

Any suggestion will be very much appreciated.

Thanks in advance.
