Because you are using the OS as user which is default, If you want write access to files outside of $HOME you must use sudo and gksudo (or kdesu in KDE).

So to get write access you would need to run:

gksudo gedit /var/www/text.php

or in command line:

sudo nano /var/www/text.php

You will then get write access to the file.

It would be best to add your self to the www-data group and modify the www dir permissions.
Code:
usermod -a -G www-data yourUserName
chmod -R g+rwx /var/www

Can you help with this problem?
