array work, simple question

[Anon]

Ok, im working on a news script. Im going to add news from an admin page and it will simply add it to the front page. All i need to know is how (i seem to have forgot) to pull a line from a file, and seperate a line from the (text) file into an array so i can print them out in the right places
like
Posted By | Subject | Message | Date
u should know what i mean, grab the posted by and put it in array[1], subject is array[2] etc.
Thank you very much for any help

Hi,
I am not getting what exactly you want.
As i understood this is the scenario.. you have a text file with delimited(|) data and you want to read that data and put in separate arrays if so,try this

$line_arr=file("data.txt");

for($i=0;$i<sizeof($line_arr);$i++)
{
$data_arr=explode("|",$line_arr);
$postby_arr[]=$data_arr[0];
$subject_arr[]=$data_arr[1];
$message_arr[]=$data_arr[2];
$dt_arr[]=$data_arr[3];
}

Hope this helps........
