How can the response from a script be written to a text file in PHP and what are the common pitfalls associated with this process?

To write the response from a script to a text file in PHP, you can use the `file_put_contents()` function. This function takes two parameters: the file path where you want to write the content and the content itself. Common pitfalls associated with this process include not checking if the file is writable, not handling file permissions properly, and not properly escaping the content to prevent injection attacks. 

<?php
$response = "This is the response from the script.";
$file_path = "response.txt";

if (is_writable($file_path)) {
    file_put_contents($file_path, $response);
    echo "Response written to file successfully.";
} else {
    echo "Unable to write to file. Please check file permissions.";
}
?>
