An alternative to fgets for those of us without 'auto_detect_line_endings' support. <?php /** * GetLine * Obtain the next line in a given file by reading each character until a * \r or \n is reached. * * @param file a handle returned from fopen for our file. * @return string the next line in the file. */ function getLine($file) { // iterate over each character in line. while (!feof($file)) { // append the character to the buffer. $character = fgetc($file); $buffer .= $character; // check for end of line. if (($character == "\n") or ($character == "\r")) { // checks if the next character is part of the line ending, as in // the case of windows '\r\n' files, or not as in the case of // mac classic '\r', and unix/os x '\n' files. $character = fgetc($file); if ($character == "\n") { // part of line ending, append to buffer. $buffer .= $character; } else { // not part of line ending, roll back file pointer. fseek($file, -1, SEEK_CUR); } // end of line, so stop reading. break; } } // return the line buffer. return $buffer; } ?> ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.fgets.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+40480 Delete -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+40480&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+40480&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
