Check the mode parameter for

    http://www.php.net/manual/function.fopen.php3

    'w' - Open for writing only; place the file pointer at the beginning 
    of the file and truncate the file to zero length. If the file does 
    not exist, attempt to create it. 

Here is an example:

    @$fp = fopen ("$notify", "w");
    fwrite ($fp, $email_file) or die("Couldn't write e-mail file!");
    @fclose ($fp);

This was a script to write a file to be emailed. Every time it was
called the $email_file variable was written to $notify (a path/file name
combo).
