how to store variables permanently

[zozzen]

Hi, very new to php, I'm wondering if it's possible to store a variable permanently.

Let say, I fetch the stock quote from yahoo like this:

<?php
$fp = fopen ("http://finance.yahoo.com/d/quotes.csv?s=MSFT&f=sl1d1t1c1ohgv&e=.csv","r");
$data = fgetcsv ($fp, 1000, ",")
?>

<?php
fclose ($fp);
?>

And I'll get the $data[0....8], how can i store them permanently?

Thanks alot!

Write it to a file [php.net] or store it in a database [php.net].
