fwrite() help needed

I am trying to write to a .rtf file form a php page.
I can create a temp rtf file based on a template but i can only change one
item on the page.
I want to be able to change multiple items in the rtf file based on what has
been entered in the html page

eg

the rtf file has [[name]] [[address]] [[phone]]

I can use the str_replace to change one item but not all three
any suggestions?

Perhaps you need three invokations of str_replace.
All of the invokations should operate on the same
string.

But of course you can change all three:

$rtf = 'the rtf file has [[name]] [[address]] [[phone]]';
$rtf = str_replace ('[[name]]', 'Craig Keightley', $rtf);
$rtf = str_replace ('[[address]]', 'craig@sitedesign.net', $rtf);
$rtf = str_replace ('[[phone]]', '(987)654-3210', $rtf);

Now $rtf should read like this:

the rtf file has Craig Keightley craig@sitedesign.net (987)654-3210

Hey Craig,

try this

$search = array ( "[[name]]", "[[address]]", "[[phone]]" );
$replace = array ( "My Name", "My Address", "My Phone" );
$rtf = str_replace ( $search, $replace, $rtf );

that's it
