counting lines in a text file

[b0r3d]

Hey me again,

I am trying to find out how to count the amount of lines in a text file. Something like mIRC does, for example.

$lines(filename.txt) would output something like "13" if there was 13 lines of text. I am trying to find out how to do that using php. Stupid but i looked up lines() but it didn't work lol.

Thanks,

use the file() function to put it into an array, and count it.

example:

$arr=file("test.txt");
$lines=count($arr);

echo "Theres $lines lines in test.txt";
