Simply do something like this:
$file = file("file.txt");
$num = count($file);
if ($num > 1){
while ($num !=-1){
echo $file($num) . "<br>";
$num = $num - 1;
}
}
What this does is it reads in all the lines of the text file into the $file
array. Next, a count is done to determine how many lines are in the $file
array, then a loop is run to print everything from the bottom of the array
up to the top.
Hope this helps..
Chris
