Hi, I have a question about fgets(), it seems to pick up an extra line
at the end of a text file.
example, I open a new file named "test" with the vi editor and make it 8
lines long like so (showing newlines as \n):
1\n
2\n
3\n
4\n
5\n
6\n
7\n
8\n
I create this PHP program and run it:
<?php
$fd = fopen ("test","r");
while (!feof ($fd)) {
$buffer = fgets($fd, 4096);
echo "buffer is $buffer";
}
fclose ($fd);
?>
Here is the output (showing newlines as \n):
buffer is 1\n
buffer is 2\n
buffer is 3\n
buffer is 4\n
buffer is 5\n
buffer is 6\n
buffer is 7\n
buffer is 8\n
buffer is
My question, why is there an extra line? Or in other words, how do I get
this to loop exactly 8 times if there are only 8 lines?
TIA
