Re: read a bunch of files that are in many directors into one string -- oops again

I had to add the full path and it works just fine. Thanks

Well, make sure $rootPath is correct for your environment. Also, add a slash after the directory name. Thank you, Micah Gersten onShore Networks Internal Developer http://www.onshore.com Richard Kurth wrote:

foreach (range(0,22) as $dirNum)

Parse error*: syntax error, unexpected T_DNUMBER in *remove.php* on line *4 it does not like the *foreach (0..22 as $dirNum)

        
Try this:

$rootPath = '/remote'; $string = ''; foreach (0..22 as $dirNum) {

    $dir = "$rootPath/$dirNum";
    chdir($dir);
    $files = glob("13*");
    foreach ($files as $file)
    {
       $string .= file_get_contents($file);
    }

} echo $string; Thank you, Micah Gersten onShore Networks Internal Developer http://www.onshore.com Richard Kurth wrote:

reading files. Thank you, Micah Gersten onShore Networks Internal Developer http://www.onshore.com Richard Kurth wrote:

                            
I am trying to read a bunch of files that are in many directors

into one string But it will only read one file. Every file is a number 134328923 but they all start with 13 They are in 22 directors named 0 to 22 How can I make the script look in each directory and read each file into a string that is one line after another. There is only one line per file they are email address $file="/remote/0/13*"; $data =""; $fp = fopen($file, "r"); while(!feof($fp)) { $data .= fgets($fp, 1024); } echo $data
