You could try something like this: <?php $file = file("file"); for($i = 0, $k = 0; $i < sizeof($file); $i++) { if(substr($file[$i], 0, 4) == "&&4;") { $newfile[$k - 1] .= $file[$i]; } else { $newfile[$k++] = $file[$i]; } } ?> -- Jason Stechschulte jpstech@unoh.edu -- Perl programming is an *empirical* science! -- Larry Wall in <10226@jpl-devvax.JPL.NASA.GOV>
