Sorry, its a typo. it should be:
$city = "Ipswitch";
$city_found = 0;
$contentfile = fopen("content.txt", "r");
while (!feof($contentfile) && $city_found == 0);
{
$my_line = fgets($contentfile, 16384);
$content_array = explode("\t",$my_line);
if ($content_array[0] == $city)
{
$city_found = 1;
print("Matched on $content_aray[0]<br>\n");
}
}
print("$content_array[0]\n");
//end
As I stated. The match happens and the "Matched on..." message happens,
but the print statement outside the "while" loop does not. Its php-4.2.2
running on RedHat 8.0 (don't go there.) Its the stock redhat php package.
I don't trust redhat libraries for building php from scratch. Of course,
this might actually be the problem, too. :-)
