    Have an html form set up like...

    <html><head></head><body><form method="POST" action="action.php">
    <p><input type="text" name="name" /></p>
    <p><input type="text" name="age" /></p>
    <p><input type="submit" value="Submit" /></p>
    </form>
    </body></html>

    Then have a PHP file to process it like so...

    <?php
    $content = $_POST['name']."\n".$_POST['age']."\n \n";
    $fh1 = fopen("storeInfo.txt", 'w') or die("Error, can't open file");
    fwrite($fh1, $content);
    fclose($fh1);
    ?>
