[Problem] - reading file

Hello, The problem is, that script outputs Last line from the file (and not first line, as expected)! 4 hours spent seeking for mistake. Hopeless. The script should read all the filenames in the directory, then open each file to read first line from file and output this line. if(!isset($_GET['id'])){//if !ISSET ID $path = "files/info/".LANG; if ($handle = opendir($path)) {//first if while (false !== ($file = readdir($handle))) { //while if ($file != "." && $file != "..") { //if not . .. if(!is_file($file)){ //echo $file."<br><br>"; $new_path = "files/info/".LANG."/".$file; //echo $new_path; $text = file($new_path); foreach($text as $lines ) { $lines = preg_replace("/\n/", "<br>", $lines); $lines = trim($lines); $lines = explode("\n",$lines); $out = "$lines[0]"; } echo $out."<br><br>"; unset ($out); }//!is_file }//if not . .. }//while closedir($handle); }//first if }//if !ISSET ID If text files look like: 1.txt{ First line of 1.txt. Second line of 1.txt. } 2.txt{ First line of 2.txt. Second line of 2.txt. } Then Output (using this script) will be: Second line of 1.txt Second line of 2.txt - - - - - - - - - - - But it should be: First line of 1.txt First line of 2.txt I'm really hopeless.. Thanks everyone in advance! Roman.
