I would like to know how to read a file on a local machine.. i.e. if a user says read c:\something.txt
Then I read the file into a string and parse it.
any ideas?
Search for the fopen() function in the PHP manual. 🙂
ok.. fopen doesn't do what I need...
I would like for a user to hit this page.. use a box to point to a file that is on his machine (client's machine) and have my php page read it... kind of like a cookie except this isn't a cookie.
