What would be the actual code for this however in
PHP4? I'm new to the language, but know moderate
amounts of PERL, so I'm really struggling with how
I can assign a file's contents into an array and
delete a line, then write the edited version back
to the file. Also, the line now contains more
data. To clarify what I need code for:
Get every line from file.txt which is in this format:
User1~background~font~
Username2~background~font~
Login3~background~font~
Then, match the first field (The one before the ~)
to Username2. If it does match, have the program
get rid of the entire line. Then write everything back
to file.txt.
Sorry if I'm unclear, its really hard to explain what
I need done in text.
Thanks!!
