Pagin result from files

[Anon]

Hi all,
I hope my English is clear enough and my question isn't a faq.

However, my problem is:

I read some records from a file TXT (a record, in this case, is a line in the format below:

3|text|text1|12|123

\n for every record, fileds are separated by |.

In the top of the file, I save the total number of the records.

I need to paging result like it's used to do with mysql (LIMIT start,end instruction).

How to do?!

Thanks a lot!

$file = fopen("yourfile","r");
for($i =0; $i < $startlimit +1; $i++)
{

$file->read()
}
for($i =0; $i < $endlimit +1; $i++)
{
$line = $file->read();
$line = explode("|", $line);
echo $line[0];
}

Or something pretty close to that.

Very good Idea! Thanks! It's so simple!

Not so optimized but it's very functional!

Thanks again.
