Can anyone tell me why this part of my code is not functional?
The code might be quite messy to look at, but I've commented wherever I can.
$gp = fopen("myFile.txt","r");
while(($t = fgets($gp,1024)) && !feof($gp)) {
if ($t[0] == '=' && $t[1] == 'D') { \\Looks for =D in myFile.txt
$entryDate[] = fgets($gp,30); \\then takes next line and
} elseif ($t[0] == '=' && $t[1] == 'A') { \\puts it into $entryDate[]
$entryAuth[] = fgets($gp,50);
} elseif ($t[0] == '=' && $t[1] == 'C') { \\With a =C in myFile.txt
$readAll = fread($gp,1024); \\it reads 1024 characters &
$readAll = str_replace(" \\replaces all newlines
", "<BR CLEAR=ALL>", $readAll); \\ with a HTML tag.
$endPoint = strpos($readAll,"^end"); \\Detects the position of ^end
$readTil = $endPoint - 1; \\ and outputs $readTil
$entryCont[] = substr($readAll,0,$readTil); \\ content to this point
} else {
/* Nothing to be done, go back to beginning of while */
}
}
The problem is that it doesn't actually go back to the beginning of the while
loop. I've checked the array counts for the $entryDate[] array and it always
tells me that I have only 1 entry, even though myFile.txt has 2 or more entries.
So it doesn't seem to go anywhere. When I replace the part after checking for
=C with a simple fgets (like the other 'if' parts of the code), it works
perfectly. Something in the functions after the if( .... =C) is stopping the
while loop and I don't know what it is!
Note: It does execute all the functions after the if(... =C), because the
$entryCont[] array contains all the formatted/substituted text.
Please help?
