PHP File

<?php

$fh=fopen("users.txt","r");
$flag=false;

while(!feof($fh))
{
$user=fgets($fh);
$u=explode(" ",$user);
     if(($u[0]==$_POST["name"])&&($u[1]==$_POST["pword"]))
          {
          $flag=true;
          break;
          }
}

fclose($fh);

if($flag==true)
echo "Access Granted";
else
echo "Access Denied";
?>

The problem is that [man]fgets/man includes the line break in the returned value, so $u[1] is going to include that line break.

You can either remove the line break, or you could change your code so that it uses the [man]file/man function with the FILE_IGNORE_NEW_LINES option.

How do I use the FILE_IGNORE_NEW_LINES? Where will I insert it in my code?

If ever I'm going to remove the line break, how I can make the contents still into a multidimensional array?

Like bradgrafelman said, the [man]file/man function. Look it up.
