I have this set of code. and what I want to know how to do is how to filter one or more vars in the flat file? For example filter all the people that work "at night" I'm assuming it has to be in this part of the code: for($i = 0; $i < count($arr_lines); $i++) {
    $arr_data = explode($delim, $arr_lines[$i]);
    print $arr_data[0].' '.$arr_data[1].' '.$arr_data[2].'<BR>';
} But where do I add an IF statement if that is what is needed? <?php /*assigned vars*/ $delim = "\t"; $file_path = "newfile.dat"; $name = "matt"; $works = "at night"; $programs = "php"; /*exporting data to flat file*/ $file = fopen($file_path, "a"); fwrite($file, $name.$delim); fwrite($file, $works.$delim); fwrite($file, $programs); fwrite($file, "\n"); fclose($file); $file = fopen($file_path,"r"); $page = fread($file, 4950); $arr_lines = explode("\n", $page); for($i = 0; $i < count($arr_lines); $i++) {
    $arr_data = explode($delim, $arr_lines[$i]);
    print $arr_data[0].' '.$arr_data[1].' '.$arr_data[2].'<BR>';
} fclose($file); ?> TIA! -Matt -- Matt Zur mattz@zurnet.com http://www.zurnet.com Need a Web Site??? - Visit... www.zurnet.com 1997 - 2002 - 5th Anniversary!!!
