note 61207 added to function.fseek

Easier, and possibly faster ways of going to a certain line number and finding the number of lines in a file. Of course, disadvantage if PHP doesn't properly recognize the line endings. Go to line number. It will leave off the $fp just at the line you want to go to. function seekLine($linenumber, $fp) { for ($i=0; $i<$linenumber; $i++) { fgets($fp,4096); } } Count the number of lines. Helpfully rewinds the $fp. function countNumLines($fp) { $i = 0; while (!feof($fp)) { fgets($fp,4096); $i++; } rewind($fp); return $i; } ---- Server IP: 195.221.21.36 Probable Submitter: 81.65.105.220 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.fseek.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+61207 Delete: added to the manual -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+61207&report=yes&reason=added+to+the+manual Delete: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+61207&report=yes&reason=bad+code Delete: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+61207&report=yes&reason=spam Delete: useless -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+61207&report=yes&reason=useless Delete: non-english -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+61207&report=yes&reason=non-english Delete: already in docs -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+61207&report=yes&reason=already+in+docs Delete: other reasons -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+61207&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+61207&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
