count()

[kosmidd]

Hello everyone.
I have a problem.
I want to count words in a page.
I try this:
$count=count($title);

for ($i=0;$i<$count;$i++){
$num=$i+1;
}
echo"$num";

$title;
$title;
$title;
$title;
$title;

Your code doesn't make much sense, so here are two approaches.

Got the entire page in a string? Do this:
print substr_count($page, $search);

Or if you just want to read a file line by line:
$count = 0;
$fd = fopen("yourfile.txt", "r");
while(!feof ($fd)) {
$s = fgets($fd, 4096);
$count += substr_count($s, $search);
}
fclose ($fd);

Thanks very much.
This is how I did it.
$title .= '123!~!';
$writer .= '123!~!';
$pages .= '123!~!';
$counting .= "count ";

$title .= '234!~!';
$writer .= '234!~!';
$pages .= '234!~!';
$counting .= "count ";

    $title .= '345!~!';
$writer .= '345!~!';
$pages .= '345!~!';
$counting .= "count ";

$entries = (count(preg_split("/\w\b/",$counting))-1);

It is a flat file data base and I 'd like to count the entries.
I 'll make an array of $title, $writer, $pages and call array (i is each entry i )
I hope this can be done, somehow.
Thank you very much for your help.
