note 55710 added to function.fgets

Just wanted to point out that you can do a priming read on the data file outside a while statement to get your data to act on; <?php $handle = fopen("some_file", "r"); $buffer = fgets($handle, 4096); while (!feof($handle)) { echo $buffer; } ?> Then when you enter the while loop (if you do) you have data already waiting for you to act on. ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.fgets.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+55710 Delete: added to the manual -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+55710&report=yes&reason=added+to+the+manual Delete: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+55710&report=yes&reason=bad+code Delete: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+55710&report=yes&reason=spam Delete: useless -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+55710&report=yes&reason=useless Delete: non-english -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+55710&report=yes&reason=non-english Delete: other reasons -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+55710&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+55710&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
