Reading from text files...

[Anon]

Hello,

How would I go about reading from a file that looks like the following. I want to open the file, read in each field as an element of an array and then pick and choose the elements I want to print to the browser.

1|ref_no|SPC200202198
2|order_completed|Y

So, array[0] is 1, array[1] is ref_no

... you get the idea!

Thanks from a newberry

Much appreciated!

I have a tutorial for creating a news system with text files on my site that will tell you exactly how to do this. In the tutorial, I store information in exactly this way. Check this url:
