Can someone point me in the right direction to some tutorials ( & *EXAMPLES* ) to do the following functions (or point mer to an appropriate forum - see above)..

http://us2.php.net/manual/en/

:- Open a file & insert into an array/variable. (im trying to figure that one out now - get file-open errors)..

file()

(& close / flock etc... - not sure if flocking is on PHP ?)

flock()

:- turn a variable (split it) into an array..

explode()

:- Loop through an array - & display a line IF it matches another variable etc..

in_array()

I think those 3 things are good starting points - I think I'll learn fast - But just need pointers to the usage / PHP commands - That I know I can do in Perl..
