I'm not really sure what you're trying to do, but I assume you want to keep the four(?) spaces when you output the data. If you're going to display it using HTML, you have to replace the spaces with &nbsp; - otherwise HTML truncates the excess whitespace. Try using REGEX: $contents =3D file($filename); echo preg_replace("/\s/", "&nbsp;", $contents); This regular expression will replace all whitespace (spaces/newlines/carriage returns) with the character &nbsp;, which in HTML yields a blank space. -- Kim Christensen kim.christensen@gmail.com
