Re: Reversing the order of a text file

Chris,

        I need to sort it backwards... reverseing the order of the lines in the file. currently i have:

<?

    $fp=Fopen("file.txt","r");

while (!feof($fp)) {

      $buffer = fgets($fp, 4096);
      echo nl2br($buffer);
    }

?>

        And this reads the file into the page nicely but i want the last line first ect?

order. How do i go about doing this? What do you mean by reverse order, reverseing every character, or each line? You could read the whole file into an array with file(), and then simply sort the array backwards if you simply need to manipulate the order of the lines. -- Chris Moyer -- cmoyer@chekinc.com --
