if the file's not too long, you could use file() to read the file into
memory, then loop through the array you get back and look for the line(s)
you're after.
if you don't want to read the entire file into memory, you can loop through
the file with:
$f = fopen($file, "r") or die("can't open file");
while (!foef($f))
{
$line = fgets($f, 1024); // increase length if your lines are longer
// line checking code here
}
fclose($f);
