well, i have to say it was challenging to make this file work...it has to read the lines that end with "\n" and are strings separated by "|"..i need to count the lines so i could assign an id to each new line that would auto increment. yes yes....i know mysql would be so much easier...but many people im making this for don't mysql so i had to resort to file's :-( .. well this is what i finally got to work.. <?php $fd = fopen ("file.db", "r"); $count = 0; while (!feof ($fd)) { $count++; $buffer[$count] = fgets($fd, 4096); $line = explode("|", $buffer[$count]); echo "$line[0] | $line[1] | $line[2] | $line[3] | $line[4]<br>"; } fclose ($fd); ?> i used some cgi methods in that..but hey, they work :-)
