Just need some help with the post / get functions php script.

I have the post function working with this php script

<?
$guiban = fopen("guiban.txt", "a+");
fwrite($guiban,"$guibanvalue\r\n");
fclose($guiban);
?>


but, how do i create a get function script in php.. I need the php to find a text stored in %variable% on setupfactory and get the line number and return it to setup factory in %linenumbervariable%... how would this be done?

so it will look up let's say "thisword" on "guiban.txt" and return whatever line number that "thisword" is on. please.. help.

Are you completely set on using PHP for this? The reason that I ask, is because you should be able to do it completely within Setup Factory if you want to, and skip the whole PHP idea.

well the reason for this is so i can manage the serial numbers that have been used. therefore only 1 person can use the serial number. on top of the idea of using a serial number, i also have a randomly generated gui number that goes on the same line number as the serial number but on a different text file. the gui number is hidden in the users registry. so that only one computer can use the serial number. confusing.. yes but.. i really am trying to get some sort of secure way of handling serial numbers online..
