RE: [PHP] fread()

I believe that fread uses the handle pointer from when it was opened so... None of the code is tested, I just typed it in. class FileReader { //private var $handle; function FileReader($filePath) { $this->handle = fopen($filePath,'r'); } /*public*/function read($bytes) { return fread($this->handle,$bytes); } /*public*/function isEndOfFile() { return feof($this->handle); } //... } USAGE: $strFile = ""; $fr =& new FileReader("example.txt"); While(!$fr->isEndOfFile()) { $strPartialFile = $fr->read(1000); $strFile .= $strPartialFile; } More at: php.net/fread Regards, Justin Palmer __________________________ KISS (Keep It Simple, SEARCH)!
