Dispaying a textfile into a table

[Anon]

As a complete beginner, I've written a cgi-script which is writing data (delimited by a ; )into a textfile.
So far so good........but now I have tryed to author a php to display the data into a table:

<?

function my_fgetcsv($filename,$sep) {
$arr=file($filename);
$erg=array("");
foreach ($arr as $elem); {
$str=$elem;
$buf=explode ($sep,$str);
$erg=array_merge($erg,$buf);
}
array_shift($erg);
return $erg;
}

function table_out($rows,$cols,$arr,$width,$border,$cp,$cs,$color) {
reset ($arr);
$cellwd=100/$cols."%";
echo "<table width='$width' border='$border' cellpadding='$cp' cellspacing='$cs'>";
for ($c=0;$c<$cols;$c++) {
$elem=pos($arr);
echo "<th width='$cellwd' bgcolor='$color'>$elem</th>";
next($arr);
}
for ($r=1;$r<$rows;$r++) {
echo "<tr>";
for ($c=0;$c<$cols;$c++) {
$elem=pos($arr);
echo "<td bgcolor='$color'>$elem</td>";
next($arr);
}
echo "</tr>";
}
echo "</table>";
}

$arr=my_fgetcsv("tabelle.txt",";");
table_out(3,6,$arr,"90%",0,2,2,"#E8E8E8");

?>

Unfortunately this doesn't work cause my webhost only runs PHP3 :-((

Can anyone tell me how to do this in php3 incluing the
function table_out($rows,$cols,$arr,$width,$border,$cp,$cs,$color)
with all it's parameters??

Thanks for your help :-)

After a quick look at the code
I think the only statement thats PHP4 is
the foreach statement in the top function.

it looks like this:

foreach ($arr as $elem); {
$str=$elem;
$buf=explode ($sep,$str);
$erg=array_merge($erg,$buf);
}

recode into this:

for($i=0;$i<count($arr);$i++){
$str=$arr[$i];
$buf=explode ($sep,$str);
$erg=array_merge($erg,$buf);
}

hope this helps

Hi Stef

Thank you very much for your reply.

I changed the code, but now it seems like the functions array_merge() and
array_shift() aren't supported by PHP3 aswell.

What am I doing now?
Maybe I'd better throw my PHP4 book away and buy one on PHP3 :-(
