fopen/fgets

Can someone give me a hand here? I am really lost as to what is going on. I have a file that looks like this user1,Store 1 - ABC street user2,Store 2 - Northside user3,Store 3 - East I try to run my code, but I get a php log filled (~33 megs, the input file is only 12 lines): [06-Mar-2003 15:22:53] PHP Warning: feof(): 1 is not a valid File-Handle resource in /home/perf/create_prefs.php on line 7 [06-Mar-2003 15:22:53] PHP Warning: fgets(): 1 is not a valid File-Handle resource in /home/perf/create_prefs.php on line 8 [06-Mar-2003 15:22:53] PHP Warning: feof(): 1 is not a valid File-Handle resource in /home/perf/create_prefs.php on line 7 [06-Mar-2003 15:22:53] PHP Warning: fgets(): 1 is not a valid File-Handle resource in /home/perf/create_prefs.php on line 8 While it is running it just stalls. This is my code: $fp = fopen("emaillist", "r"); if (!$fp) die("Error opening file. $php_errormsg"); while (!feof($fp)) { $buffer = fgets($fp, 4096); echo $buffer; $row = explode(',', $buffer); if (!empty($row[0])) { $user = "$row[0]"; $name = "$row[1]"; $stuff = "email_address=$user@mystore.com\n" . "chosen_theme\=../themes/mystore_theme.php\n" . "show_html_default\=0\n" . "javascript_on\=1\n" . "full_name\=$name\n" . "use_signature\=0\n" . "prefix_sig\=0\n"; $fileout = $user . "_perf.pref"; $fout = fopen("$fileout", "w"); fputs($fout, "$stuff"); fclose($fp); fclose($fout); } } Please help! I keep re-reading the docs at php.net for fopen fgets and all that with no luck!
