I'm not certain if this answers your question or not...

after laoding the array of the file:

<?PHP
exec("cat $filename", $file_array);

$number_array = count($file_array);
?>

or you can also count the "\n"'s in the string to get the number of lines...

well... not exactly... i will explain you in a better way...
im writing some things in a txt file.. through a form... then i see the arrays in that txt with smth like this..
$txtfile = file('news.txt');
if i want to print some arrays i use this
echo($txtfile[0]);
the thing i want to do is the for action to check the number of arrays and then print all the arrays... im making that with the variable $i and then i add one with this $i++
but i want to know how to make the php to check the total of arrays in the txt file...
then i can do smth like this
for($i=0; $i<totalarraysofthetxt; $i++){
echo($txtfile);
}
Know what i mean??
Thanks,
Fernando
