Create PHP file in code

[grandad]

Hi,

Is there a way to create and save a PHP file using code? I would like to create a database connection file on the fly when building the database, so would want to create a file called dbconnect.php, fill it with the database connection details such as 'username' etc from my script

the final format I would want is

<?php

$dbhostname = "localhost";
$dbdatabase = "MY VARIABLE HERE";
$dbusername = "private";
$dbpassword = "private";
$fgconnection = mysql_pconnect($dbhostname, $dbusername, $dbpassword) or die(mysql_error());
@mysql_select_db($dbdatabase) or die("Database error (error 1)");

?>

and then save this as a regular PHP file.

Any help much appreciated!

Thanks
