As for checking if an email was used, you can use regex to see if there's a match in the file.
Not so sure about validation, though.

It's alright. I can do the validation. I'll look into regex.

A considerably better option, especially since you're already working with PHP, would be to save it to a MySQL database, checking if it was already used with an SQL query beforehand.

I'm only a beginner but I'll look into that too.

Also,
How would I edit camice's subscription feature code to save data from 2 input boxes, email and password, to the file instead? (In a readable format)

You should never save passwords for anything in a text file.
It's fine-ish for a list of emails, but it poses a risk to store passwords like that.

I know, but let's just say that I'm not concerned about the security of these passwords. Wink

... right.

Well, to store more fields, you'll need to grab the field values via their name, and concatenate the string:
Code:
<?php $file_name = 'YourFileContainingEmails.txt'; $mail = $_POST['email']; $pass = $_POST['password']; $file = fopen($file_name, "a"); fwrite($file, $mail . ", " . $pass . "\n"); ?>

That will save the fields "email" and "password" to your file in the format
Quote:user@Email.com, password
user2@Email.com, password1

Who needs Google when you have Sinisterly?
