note 32374 deleted from function.fgets by sniper

Note Submitter: elie at de-brauwer.be ---- It has been my experience that when using fgets on a file have line lengths that vary from 1 to 3000 that one better supplies the buffer length instead of letting php do the thinking. while(! feof($handle)){ $line=fgets($handle); $crc = crc32(chop($line)); echo $crc . "\n"; } Which should calculate thet sigend crc32 checksum of each line in a file. When doing this on a file which contains 10000 lines this should result in a 10000 checksums, this codes delivers more than 15000 checksums, when setting the buffer length to a large enough sice (say 4096), it works fine. So be carfull with 'letting php do the thinking for you'. hth Elie De Brauwer
