Read data from file

[xmax]

Hi All,

I need to read data from text file with 20 lines each line with some text
In the beging I want to read only the first 5 lines, and insert each line content into object.
i.e

$line1 = first line
$line2 = secound line.......

Can someone help me with writing the code?

Thanks Alon

[man]file[/man] will spool the contents of a file into an [man]array[/man] then just loop thru it using [man]foreach[/man]

Thanks, In this case how can I echo only irstng for example?
Whay echo "$x1" is not working?

<?php

$lines = file('1.txt');
foreach ($lines as $line_num => $line) {
$line_num = $line_num + 1;
$x[$line_num] = $line;
echo "$x[$line_num] <br>";
}
echo "$x1";
?>

$file = file('1.txt');
foreach ($file as $key => $value)
{
	$key++;
	echo $key . ': ' . trim($value) . '<br>';
}
