How do I create a .doc file using php?

[kelsey720]

Hello,

I have looked online and cannot find suitable instructions on how to create a word document using php. What I have is a form field called 'essay'. I want it so anyone can paste something into the field, submit is clicked, and a .doc is created and inserted into a table in mysql. I'm stumped on how to create the .doc using php. Any ideas?
