Try this little code snippet:
<?
$filename = 'cars.data';
$car = $HTTP_GET_VARS['car'];
if ($car != '') {
$file = file($filename);
if (is_array($file)) {
$read = FALSE;
foreach ($file as $f) {
if (!$read && ereg('^##'.$car, $f))
$read = TRUE;
elseif ($read && ereg('^##end', $f)) {
$read = FALSE;
break;
} elseif ($read)
$content .= $f;
}
}
}
echo "content=$content<br>";
?>
Hope this helps. :)
