Reading certain lines from a file

maximumbob · Sep 21, 2002

How do I make it access a file starting with a certain entry set by a form or url:

Then it would open entry 9 of the file. Help Please?

Thanks

Is this a database call?

it will be saved to a txt file with the fwrite() command.

open the file and call fgets() 9 times to get the 9th line...

so I would use:

while ($i=0;i<$page;i++)
{
fgets($file)
}

Try...

$arrFile = file('file.txt');
echo $arrFile[$line - 1];
