simple text editor

[Dave]

Can anyone tell me how I can open a file for editing in a textarea and save
with the changes as they are in the textarea. Do I need javascript for this
too, how does php know where to insert the cursor/data. Thanks for your
help.

<?php $thefile = file_get_conten ts('myfile.txt' );?>

<TEXTAREA NAME="TheFile"> <?php =$thefile?></TEXTAREA>
